Description
The outbuildings immediately south-east of Old Hall Farmhouse are farm buildings and a mill apprentices dormitory block, dating from the 1790s and 19th century. They were built for Samuel Oldknow. The structures are made of dressed stone and random stone, topped with graduated stone slate and corrugated iron roofs. The long range of buildings forms an S shape, all standing two storeys high and enclosing a midden.
The east wing is designed to house pigs on the ground floor, with haylofts above. It features 12 bays with a stone plinth, a continuous first-floor band, doors in bays 1 and 12, and a series of semi-circular openings between flat pilasters. There are also circular first-floor pitching eyes and a pointed arch opening at the gable. The middle range continues with the pitching eyes and includes opposed cart entries with flattened elliptical rusticated keystone arches, two blocked cart entries, a driftway, and a haybarn with three bays by one bay, which has pointed arch gable openings and semi-circular arch side openings.
The west wing contains the apprentices' dormitories on two levels beneath a mono-pitched roof. It has a total of seven windows, a band, and a door that is accessed by a flight of steps. The machinery that once operated here was powered by a waterwheel, which still exists in the adjoining field.
