Condition
The various structures which comprise Clayton Farm are generally in good condition. While the lower brick courses of Clayton Farm House have been rendered there is no sign in the brickwork above the render of fretting mortar or bricks. There is fretting to some of the bricks on the south east side of the chimney stack but this is not extensive and may represent wind erosion. The cellar of the small cottage displays evidence of rising damp but this appears to be under control at present. Both the brick lined wells are in good condition. The well near the house was repaired in 1972 when a new coping and a gable roof were installed.
