Huntroyde

Huntroyde is a large house, dated 1576 on a lintel at a rear doorway. It was altered and a wing added in the 18th century (this wing has since been demolished), and further altered and enlarged in the 19th century; it is now divided into two dwellings. The house is primarily constructed of sandstone ashlar with slate and lead-clad roofs, featuring various chimneys. The main range extends east-west, presenting a unified Jacobean-style facade to the south, while incorporating different building phases and a varied rear form. A double-depth crosswing is located at the west end, and a tower is situated at the east end.

The mostly two-storey south front has horizontal bands at two levels and an embattled parapet. The hall range, consisting of four bays (with the third bay projecting), has large mullion and transom windows on both floors. The projecting bay features coupled windows, and there’s a small three-light attic window in the crow-stepped gable. To the left, a wing in a matching style, also with a crow-stepped gable, includes a two-storey bay window. To the right, slightly set back, the three-stage tower is banded, with an embattled parapet, a central flagmast, and mullion and transom windows on each floor of both the front and return walls. The interior is said to contain features of interest.
