Walton Hole Farmhouse And Attached Barn

Walton Hole Farmhouse and the attached barn are a house and barn combination built in 1719, marked with the initials "HFA" for the Flesher family. The barn was added in the early 18th century but includes earlier doorways that may date back to the 17th century. The building is constructed from hammer-dressed stone and topped with a stone slate roof. It stands two storeys high and features a two-cell direct-entry plan with a dairy and staircase located at the rear of the main house.

The exterior includes quoins and a plinth, with two bays of double-chamfered mullioned windows that have almost square reveals. The ground floor has a four-light window with a king-mullion, which is missing two mullions, and a three-light window above it. To the right of the main entrance, there is a doorway with tie-stone jambs and a lintel that features a carved date inscription within a shield, surrounded by a chamfered border. A central ridge stack is present, and the rear of the house has three mullioned windows on the ground floor, including a possibly 17th-century four-light double-chamfered window that has been re-used, a two-light stair window, and a three-light window with a two-light window above it on the first floor.

Attached to the right side of the farmhouse is a single-storey dairy that has a tall gable stack. The barn on the left end features a segmental-arched cart entry with skewbacks and punch-dressed voussoirs. The inner door entry has a quoined angle set within a porch, and there are doorways in the re-entrant angle with chamfered jambs leading to stables on either side. A similar doorway for the mistal is located at a lower level to the left. The left gable is coped with kneelers, and the rear of the barn has an opposing doorway with a chamfered surround that exhibits 17th-century characteristics.

Inside the house, the main body features a segmental-arched fireplace with false joggled voussoirs and a chamfered surround, along with a chamfered doorway to the right. The parlour, which spans the full depth of the house, contains a fireplace with a monolithic lintel and a stop-chamfered surround. Both rooms have stop-chamfered spine beams and chamfered joists that are either from the 17th century or have been re-used. The chambers include remnants of original oak-panelled wardrobes.
