Stafford Farm is a well preserved example of a 17th century farmhouse in an isolated position at the western extremity of the conservation area. Built of rendered rubblestone with freestone dressings it has 3 to 4 light ovolo-moulded stone mullioned and transomed windows with moulded panes. The raised stringcourses, coping to raised gables with moulded kneelers are also archetypical of the period. The rendered brick stacks at both gable ends have been rebuilt. As well as the farmhouse, there is an important grouping of traditional farm buildings surrounding the house - one with a dovecote in its gable end. Other details: Maps, photographs.
