Description

Original HER entry merged with NRHE data import: Green Farm [NAT]. <1> Green Farmhouse and adjoining barn. Timber-framed and plastered house built about 1600. Grade II. <2> Green Farm, house, and barns. The house was probably built about 1600, on an L-shaped plan with wings extending east and north. At the end of the north wing is a barn, apparently of late 17th century date and there are other 17th and 18th century additions. One original chimney-stack has diagonal pilasters and another stack has one square and two octagonal shafts. The two barns north-east of the house have walls partly weather-boarded, and are probably of the same date as the house. <3> Timber-framed and plastered house built around 1600. It has two storeys and a three window range. The upper storey has two horizontal sliding sashes with glazing bars and one modern casement window. The ground storey has tripartite double-hung sashes with glazing bars. The roof is tiled, gabled at the east and west ends, with a central chimney stack. A long single storeyed brick barn wing extends to the north at the west end. <4>
