Building record MDR13646 - Draycott Fields, Derby Road, Shacklecross

A farmstead, probably built in the late eighteenth or early nineteenth century. The farmhouse is built of red brick beneath a hipped slate roof. The front elevation is three storeys tall. Each storey has a pair of modern windows with splayed lintels. The third storey appears to be a later addition. The farmhouse is set back from the street behind a red brick wall. Draycott's open fields were enclosed in 1763. The farmstead is named on Sanderson's map of 1835. (1)
