Bullhouse Hall Including The Cottage To Left (Rear)

Bullhouse Hall, dated 1655 and built for Sylvanus Rich, is a hall constructed from deeply-coursed, dressed stone with a Welsh slate roof. It is two storeys tall with an attic and features a cottage at the rear left. The hall has four gabled bays, with the second and fourth bays slightly projecting. The chamfered plinth supports the structure, and the main entrance is located in the third bay, framed by a moulded surround and imposts, topped with a decorative lintel inscribed: "MI A 1655 D SR M".

The windows throughout are double-chamfered and transomed, except for those in the attic, and consist of 2, 4, and 6 lights, with the 6-light windows positioned on each floor of the right bay. The second bay resembles a narrow porch, featuring 4-light windows and single transomed lights on each side. A trefoil window is set in the gable of the third bay. Each floor has a continuous dripmould, and the gable copings are hollow-chamfered on cut kneelers, some of which are adorned with finials. The hall has three ashlar stacks with plinths and moulded cornices.

On the rear, the left part is gabled and includes two 2-light windows on the ground floor and two cross-windows on the first floor, along with a 3-light window in the gable apex. A 6-light window with a king mullion is found on the right side of the first floor. The right return of the hall features a gabled left part with cross-windows, and the entrance to the right part has a lintel supported by corbels. The cottage, which is a projecting gabled wing on the left side, is rendered.

Inside, the hallway is adorned with oak panelling, likely from the 18th century, which includes re-used 17th-century ornamental panels. The left room contains additional panelling, and the ceiling is supported by early, large-scantling, closely-spaced joists.
