Description

Oldham's Hollow Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse located on Manchester Road in Tytherington. It is constructed from coursed and squared rubble with a stone-flagged roof and features a substantial internal timber frame. The building is three storeys high and has a three-window range with a central entrance hall.

The exterior includes a doorway set in an ovolo-moulded architrave, flanked by three-light wood mullioned windows on each floor. The stone architraves are the only remnants of former stone mullioned windows. Above the doorway, there are smaller two-light mullioned windows on each floor. The facade has various blocked openings to the right and left on each floor, and string courses run above each storey. The shallow gables create dormers for the attic storey windows, which have lozenge panels at their apex. At the rear, there is a parallel range with large wood mullioned windows that illuminate the stairs, along with gable end and axial stacks.

Inside, the farmhouse features significant timber framing for the internal walls, with chamfered beams on the ceilings and fireplace bressumers. There is also a late 17th-century staircase with twisted balusters and a moulded rail.
