Description

Carter Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated to the late 17th century, with alterations and additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed from coursed squared coal measures sandstone and features advanced quoins, coped gables with plain and moulded kneelers, and ashlar gable stacks. The roofs are covered with plain tiles and stone slates.

The east elevation presents a symmetrical front with two storeys and five bays. The central three bays are beneath a gable pediment, which includes a round window with a band surround. The windows are now fitted with 20th-century casements but were originally 2-light mullioned windows, all having plain band surrounds. The heads of the windows are connected by continuous band courses, with additional projections above them. The central doorway features an eared architrave, frieze, and cornice, with a shield of arms positioned above it. This doorway is sheltered by a 19th-century half-glazed gabled porch adorned with decorative bargeboards.

On the rear elevation, there is a stepped external stack and a flush mullioned and transomed stair window. Attached to the north end is a lower two-storey range that has a massive stone surround to its doorway and 3-light horizontal sash windows with glazing bars. Inside, the farmhouse contains an 18th-century staircase with slate balusters.
