Description
Binn Royd Farmhouse and Binn Royd Cottage is a former farmhouse that has been converted into two dwellings. It features elements from the early 17th century and later 17th century, with significant alterations made in 1914 by the architects Jackson and Fox of Halifax. The building is constructed from coursed squared stone and has a stone slate roof. It has a hall with cross-wings plan, is two stories high, and has a two-bay hall with gabled wings that project slightly.
On the south front, there are double-chamfered mullion windows with round-headed lights. The left wing, known as Binn Royd Cottage, has a door in a chamfered surround on the left side, and on the right side, there is a five-light window with a decorative-stopped dripmould on each floor, topped by a gable. The hall features a stop-chamfered doorway in a shallow porch with a datestone and stone coping above the doorway. To the left of this doorway is a six-light transomed window with a king mullion and a heart-stopped dripmould. On the first floor, there are a five-light window and a three-light window.
The right wing contains a five-light window with a four-light window above, both featuring decorative-stopped dripmoulds, and there is a square stone with a hoodmould at the gable. The gables have copings and finials, and there are stacks positioned forward of and behind the ridge to the right of the left wing and at the rear gable of the right wing.
At the rear, there are chamfered-mullion windows, some of which are hollow-chamfered and most have been altered from their original form. The left wing projects, and both left and right returns have tall 20th-century mullioned windows.
Historic photographs show the building in its original form with five gabled bays, with the left bay being a later addition. Notable internal features included a large fireplace with an overmantel of Royal Arms, which is now housed in Bankfield Museum in Halifax, a 17th-century staircase, and king-post roof trusses.
