27 and 27a, Station Road

This is a house, originally known as Elmfield, now divided into two residences at 27 and 27A Station Road. It dates to 1715, initialled "JAL" for John and Anne Lambert. The house is constructed of hammer-dressed stone with a stone slate roof. It is two storeys high with five first-floor windows, and an added first-floor chamber to the left. The building has quoins. A segmental archway is located at the left end. To the right of the archway is a mid-20th century extension of wood and glass; a blocked doorway has composite jambs and a lintel inscribed "WBAD 1593" (William Baildon). An inserted doorway with a wood and glass gabled porch is present, flanked by early 20th century tripartite sash windows. The first-floor windows have recessed flat-faced mullions and roll-moulded surrounds of four lights, four lights, a lintel inscribed with a date, three lights, and two lights. Plain gutter brackets, coped gables with kneelers, and stacks are present. Two further stacks are located along the ridge. The rear elevation has similar windows to the front, with two and three lights, and two 3-light double-chamfered mullioned windows to the first floor. A single-storey kitchen wing at a right angle has a tall gable stack. The right-hand return has a blocked six-light window and two two-light chamfered mullioned windows, one inscribed "DAIRY." An archway leads from the back to the front; it contains three stop-chamfered spine beams and floor joists supporting an oak floor.

Inside, the housebody contains a segmental-arched fireplace with an ogee moulding and scarf-jointed spine beams, indicating the former presence of a bressumer and firehood. The chamber above has two fine 18th-century semicircular-arched cupboards with a triple keystone and raised and fielded panelled doors which slide sideways into the wall. The room's plaster cornice matches that of the cupboards. This room, which has an inner porch, was likely a first-floor drawing room. Other rooms retain earlier oak-panelled doors with a 16th-century character.
