Description
Fearns Hall and Fearns Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1696, located on Booth Road in Tunstead. It was renovated around 1975 and has additions from 1830, now functioning as two separate houses. The building is constructed of sandstone rubble with quoins and features tiled roofs with gable chimneys. The structure consists of two 3-bay ranges connected by linking sections, forming a roughly rectangular plan, and stands two storeys high.
Fearns Hall, located on the right, has had its original stone mullion and transom windows on the side wall replaced with concrete copies. The main architectural feature is the porch on the left side of the gable wall, which is open at the ground floor and supported by two large pillars made of white stone blocks. This supports a large lintel, above which is a slightly jettied upper floor featuring a datestone inscribed with "A EEOA I 1696 M" and a mullioned window with two round-headed lights, alongside a similar single-light window on the left side. To the left of the porch are chamfered mullion windows with three lights at the ground floor and two lights above.
Fearns Hall Farmhouse, on the left and facing left, has a plain doorway offset to the left, with a tablet above stating that George Ashworth Corham and his wife "erected this wing in 1830 on the site of that part of the old mansion house which was built about the year 1557." The openings in this section are designed in a 16th-century style, featuring square mullions and transoms with hoodmoulds, with 12 lights to the left, 14 lights to the right, and 5, 3, and 6 lights on the first floor. The interior has been altered.
