Description

Newhall Farm House is a farmhouse dating from the mid-17th century, with early 18th-century and later alterations. It is constructed of brown brick in Flemish bond and features a slate roof. The building has two storeys and four bays, along with a lower two-storey L-shaped wing at the rear (southeast). The main entrance has a wide six-panel door set in a heavy ovolo-moulded frame, which is topped by a segmental arch with a turning piece. This door is sheltered by a flat porch with a lead roof and an ogee cornice, supported by Tuscan columns and pilasters.

On the ground floor, there are three tripartite sash windows, while the first floor has four sash windows, all with stone sills, glazing bars, exposed weight boxes, and skewback flat arches. The east gable features flush stone quoins at the front and rear, with the quoin stones of the 17th-century house built in halfway along the gable-end. The earlier section of the east gable has stone mullioned windows in the kitchen and the room above, and is mainly constructed in stretcher bond. The west gable, which was added later, has recessed sashes with stone sills and flat arches. The quoin stones of the southwest corner are still visible at the rear.

The eaves are adorned with an ovolo-moulded corbel table, and there are slender stacks with chamfered corners. Inside, the farmhouse features exposed 17th-century bevelled beams and joists, along with an inglenook beam and some later unbevelled beams. Many six-panel doors are present throughout. In the Dining Room, there is an egg and dart cornice with a vine and leaf motif on the ceiling. The first floor includes widely spaced timbers in an internal wall, along with more chamfered beams and exposed ceiling joists.
