Description
Bridge Dale Farmhouse is a house dated 1709, constructed from coursed squared stone with quoins and a Welsh slate roof featuring two moulded stone ridge stacks. The building has stone coped gables with kneelers and is designed in a T plan with a staircase wing at the rear. It stands two storeys high and has four windows on the front: two 6/6 sash windows, two 2-light wooden mullion and transom windows with leaded lights, and another 6/6 sash window. The central entrance features a moulded stone doorway with a six-panelled door accessed by three stone steps. On the left end, there is a 6/6 sash window, a 2-light mullion and transom window above it, and a 2-light casement in the attic. To the rear and left, there is a 19th-century single-storey wing.
Inside, the farmhouse has stone flags and a stone bolection moulded fireplace in the hall, along with a contemporary staircase featuring turned balusters. There are also two bolection moulded pine fireplaces and an inglenook. One of the fireplaces likely has early 18th-century paintwork, showing red marbling that is now worn, along with small panels depicting plants and birds in gold. Above the doorway, there is a stone tablet inscribed with 'G' over 'I.M. Anno Domi 1709', likely commemorating John and Mary Goodman.
