NRHE data transfer:
Golden's Farm [NAT]. <1>
Goldens Farmhouse (formerly listed as Golder's Farmhouse). 15th century house, extensively altered in the 16th century, and extended in the 18th century. Grade II. <2>
Golder's Farm, house, nearly 1 mile north-north-east of the church, contains traces of 15th century work, but was rebuilt on a roughly rectangular plan late in the 16th century. Early in the 17th century, a second chimney-stack was built on to the east side of the original central stack.
Later in the 17th century the north-east wing was added, making the plan an irregular T-shape. There are low modern additions at the back and west end. The central chimney-stack has five grouped diagonal shafts - the easternmost shaft is a modern addition. <3>
