Catten Hall Farmhouse And Attached Shippon

Catten Hall Farmhouse and the attached shippon are a farmhouse dating from around 1830. The building is constructed of Flemish bond brown brick with pale headers, while the left gable end is rendered. It features a graded grey slate roof and has two storeys with three windows in a double pile arrangement. The farmhouse has a sandstone plinth and rusticated quoins. The entrance consists of double half-glazed doors with six panes, including margin panes at the top and outer edge, set within a Roman Doric doorcase that has an entablature. The windows are 20-pane casements, also with margin panes, positioned under wedge lintels. There is a brick chimney on each gable end, located in front of the ridge. At the rear, there is an attached L-shaped farm building made of sandstone, which returns to the right and includes a driftway in the corner. The interior has not been inspected. The house was built on the site of a medieval manor house that was purchased by a Liverpool timber merchant in the early 19th century.
