Old Hall Farmhouse

Old Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1600, with later alterations. It features a painted timber frame with painted brick infill panels and some areas of painted imitation timber frame, while the rear is cement rendered. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has overhanging verges, a central stone ridge stack with triple square brick shafts, and a rendered brick integral eaves stack. The building has a T-shaped plan, consisting of a 3-bay main range and a 2-bay cross wing.

The exterior is two storeys high, with the cross wing being lower. The north-east front has the main range on the left and the cross wing on the right. The main range has three framed bays with square framing, featuring two panels high over the first-floor girding beam and rectangular panelling below, also two panels high. There is a straight tension brace to the left, three 2-light casements on the first floor, a central 19th-century door beneath a lean-to tiled porch, and a 3-light casement to the right. The left-hand return gable is cement rendered and has a single casement.

The cross wing has a gable-end truss with a cambered tie beam and collar, supported by six vertical struts below and twin swept raking struts above. It features a jettied chamfered bressumer set on simple ogee-curved brackets, with close studded framing on each floor that incorporates a straight tension brace and an arch brace at each corner post, creating a diagonal pattern. There is a 2-light wood casement on the first floor and an original face-fixed mullion window on the ground floor.

The diagonal tension and arch bracing with close studded framing is repeated on the short left-hand return side and the longer right-hand return side. The rear side of the main range and the end gable of the cross wing are covered with cement render and feature mostly 20th-century metal casements. The interior has not been inspected.
