Description

Original HER entry merged with NRHE data import. Camsix Farm [NAT] <1> Camsix Farmhouse. House. 16th century and earlier with 17th to 19th century additions and early 19th century vari-coloured brick cladding. RCHM 43. Grade II. (See list for details). <2> Camsix Farm, house and barn, about 1 3/4 m S of the church. The House was built probably early in the 17th century, but has been re-faced with modern brick, and the original plan is indistinguishable. On the W side is an original chimney-stack with a plinth and two offsets. In the garden are two 15th century stones, one with a quatrefoil panel and one the base of a gable, probably part of a chapel which is said to have stood in an adjoining field. <3> Additional reference <4>
