Holywellmoor

Holywellmoor is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 16th century with later additions and alterations. It is timber framed, featuring red brick and rendered infill, and has plain tile roofs with 19th-century wooden finials on the gables. The building is L-shaped with a contemporary or slightly later half-length outshut at the front of the hall range. It has two storeys and a gable-lit attic, as well as a cellar.

The framing includes close studding with 20th-century herringbone brick infill on the ground floor and three square panels above the wall-plate. The collar and tie beam end trusses are exposed at the gable of the hall range and the front gable of the cross-wing, with jowled wall posts. The outshut has similar framing. Windows throughout the building are 20th-century casements and fixed-lights set within the framing, including one on each floor of the front gable of the cross-wing and one directly below the eaves above the entrance to the hall range, which features a 20th-century ledged door.

A prominent red brick stack is located immediately behind the ridge in line with the entrance and has four attached and rebated shafts. Inside, the timber frame is exposed throughout the ground floor, including in the cross-walls. There are chamfered ceiling beams and joists, partly rebuilt inglenook fireplaces, and plank and muntin panelled doors. A notable feature is the straight-flight oak staircase beside the fireplace in the hall range, made of solid blocks of oak, square in section, tenoned into the open string.
