Description

Old Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating to 1680, with the initials IMH carved into the stonework. It is constructed of coarse and squared large stone blocks, with a clay tile roof featuring coped verges and a large stone ridge stack located to the east of the centre. The building is arranged in an H-plan, employing a lobby-entry configuration and built in the local vernacular style.

The south front has two storeys and an attic, with a 1:1:1 bay arrangement. Gables are set back to the centre and flanking wings, each topped with shaped kneelers and a ball finial. The windows are chamfered and mullioned, set in rebated surrounds with straight hood moulds. The attic windows have two lights, while the ground floor window on the right has five, the others have four. Ground and first floor windows to the right and centre have been restored and lowered in sills. A door is positioned to the right of the centre. A projecting gabled porch is located on the left, also with coped verges, shaped kneelers, a ball finial, a three-light chamfered mullioned window in its south wall, and a door on its right-hand return, featuring a cambered doorway and a dated lintel decorated with foliage.

The north front mirrors the south in its layout, with two storeys and an attic, and a 1:1:1 bay arrangement, each gable topped with a ball finial. The windows are similarly chamfered and mullioned in rebated surrounds. The left wing has three lights on the ground floor, four on the first floor, and two in the attic. The central section features four lights on both ground and first floors, and two in the attic. The right wing has two lights at ground floor level (left, blocked), a first-floor window on the right, and two lights in the attic. One ground floor light and four first floor lights are on the right section, while the left section has an attic window.

Inside, all original roof trusses remain, incorporating raking struts extending from a tie beam to the principals, trenched purlins, and a ridge piece.
