Description
Chisnall Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the early 18th century but includes features that may be older. It is built from coursed sandstone rubble with quoins and has a concrete tiled roof with brick gable chimneys. The building has a double pile, three-bay plan and consists of two storeys and an attic.
The front and rear walls display a striking contrast in style. The front is symmetrical and features a round-headed stone doorcase with a plain fanlight and keystone, along with five boxed sash windows that have glazing bars. A tie bar crosses the facade at door head level, with tie plates flanking the door. The rear wall includes stone mullioned and transomed windows, with a six-light window at the ground floor of the first bay and two matching windows at the first floor. At the centre of the first floor, there is a stairlight with three vertically diminishing pairs of lights, and the ground floor of the third bay has a three-light stone mullion window. The centre of the ground floor is covered by a single-storey lean-to.
Inside, the arrangement of rooms and their proportions are typical for an early 18th-century house. However, it features ground floor beams with deep stop-chamfer, which are characteristic of the late 16th or early 17th century. Some doors are made of studded planks while others are panelled. There is also a panelled screen on the first floor that has elaborately carved upper panels; these may be contemporary with the windows on the rear wall but not with the facade.
