Description

Dent's Hall Farmhouse is a house dating from the 17th century and later. It is rendered with sandstone quoins and dressings, and features a Welsh slate roof with flat stone gable copings. The building has two storeys and three windows. The central entrance has a flattened Tudor arch leading to a plank door, which is set in a chamfered, moulded surround under a label mould. Above the door is a chamfered, stone-mullioned two-light window, with three-light windows on either side, all of which are square-headed and have label moulds. The roof is topped with two massive end brick stacks, each with corniced, separate chimneys. Inside, the main room has a square-panelled ceiling with moulded ribs and square bosses. There is also an elliptical fanlight with glazing bars above the door to the main room, and some stop-chamfered beams.
