West Royd

West Royd is a farmhouse dated 1624, constructed of thin coursed stone with a stone slate roof. It has two storeys and four bays, featuring two through-passages. The building has quoins, and there is a doorway between bays three and four with a quoined, chamfered, and moulded surround. The lintel above this doorway has sunk spandrels initialled 'MM' and a sunk panel with the date. The door is a 20th-century part-glazed version. In bay two, there is another doorway with a chamfered quoined surround and a deep Tudor-arched lintel, also initialled 'MM'.

The windows are double-chamfered mullioned, with those on the ground floor originally having transoms. The ground floor windows include a six-light window with a king mullion in bay one, and a two-light fire window and another six-light window in bay three, both of which have had their mullions and transoms removed. There is a continuous drip mould over the ground floor openings, with circle stops on the left over the two bays and raised over the door, while the right side features elaborate stops and a double spiral over the door.

On the first floor, from left to right, there are two four-light windows (one with a mullion removed), each under a hood mould with elaborate diamond stops, followed by two six-light windows (each with three mullions removed). The gable has coping, and there are corniced stacks at the ends and one on the ridge between bays two and three.

At the rear, the left-hand upper through-passage doorway is in an added porch and has later jambs with a chamfered ogee lintel. The right-hand through-passage doorway is now blocked, but it is quoined with a cyma-moulded arris and a shaped lintel. On the first floor at the rear, there are two two-light windows, a three-light window, and a blocked three-light window, all under hood moulds with decorative stops. The rear right-hand doorway is of a later 17th-century type, suggesting that the western portion of the farmhouse is an addition, indicating an original two-cell, through-passage plan that is common in this area.
