Description
Hall Farmhouse and Brookland is a farmhouse that has been divided, dating from the mid-to-late 17th century, with alterations and extensions made in the late 19th century. The structure is timber framed with painted brick nogging on a brick plinth and has galvanised metal sheeting at the rear. It has been partly rebuilt or refaced and extended in red brick on a coursed rubblestone plinth, with the front painted and partly designed to imitate framing. The roofs are covered in plain tiles.
The hall range consists of three framed bays aligned east-west, with a projecting gabled cross-wing to the left containing two framed bays and a 19th-century parallel cross-wing. The framing features square panels, with four panels running from the sole-plate to the wall-plate and short straight corner braces. The top two tiers of panels on the left-hand part of the hall range appear to be later additions, made after the eaves were raised. The building has two storeys, with brick ridge stacks on both the hall range and the cross-wing, as well as an integral brick lateral stack to the right of the 19th-century cross-wing.
On the north front, the hall range is to the left, featuring two first-floor 19th-century two-light wooden casements to the right, a ground-floor 20th-century three-light metal casement to the right, and a 20th-century door off-centre to the right. The left-hand cross-wing has 20th-century three-light metal casements on each floor, while the right-hand cross-wing has first-floor 19th-century three-light segmental-headed wooden casements, a pair of segmental-headed French casements to the right, and a segmental-headed six-panelled door to the left with a bracketed lean-to porch. The left-hand return front features a six-panelled door with a lean-to porch. Inside, the exposed collar and tie-beam truss with raking struts can be seen in the left-hand gable end of the main range, and the interior has chamfered beams with ogee stops in the cross-wing.
