Hinton Farmhouse

Hinton Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates back to the early 17th century, with significant later additions and alterations. It is constructed of red brick with yellow brick headers that conceal a timber frame, and it has slate roofs. The building features a 2-bay hall with a cross-wing to the north that projects to the east. This cross-wing was extended and converted in the early 19th century when a south wing was added and further modifications were made to the rear.

The farmhouse stands two storeys high with attics in the gables. The timber framing is now encased in early 19th-century brick, except for the decayed plastered right-hand gable end and the rear gable of the cross-wing, where the framing is too fragmentary to determine its type. The exposed wall-plate and double purlin ends are visible. The windows are all glazing bar sashes, mostly horned, with gauged heads. The front gables have single ranges of windows (the attic window on the right is blind and painted to imitate a window), with an additional window to the left of the hall and one above the entrance in the angle between the hall and the cross-wing. The entrance features a 6-panel door with panelled reveals and a rectangular over-light beneath a lean-to porch. There are two prominent external lateral stacks at the right-hand end and a ridge stack to the left of centre.

The 19th-century additions to the rear include gabled ranges at right angles to both the left and right, with a two-storey catslide outshut in between. Inside, there is 17th-century wainscot panelling in the cross wall of the cross-wing and upstairs in one of the bedrooms. A spine beam in the room to the left of the entrance has carved decoration, likely from the 17th century. An upper open cruck truss in the centre of the hall range allows the roof space to be used as an attic.
