Description
Bentley Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid-to-late 18th century, with a 19th-century rear extension. It is constructed of brown brick with a sandstone plinth and features a plain tile roof with brick integral end stacks. The building is aligned east-west and faces south, with a rear range on the same alignment. It has three storeys above a cellar and includes a cyma recta moulded eaves band of sandstone. The front has five windows, which are casements with segmental heads. There is a central 20th-century door that has a sandstone surround and a cornice hood.
Inside, the 18th-century cellars are partly cut out of the natural sandstone and have chamfered ceiling beams. One of the ground floor rooms features a network of ceiling beams adorned with 19th-century decorative plasterwork. There is a dog-leg staircase with a late 18th-century Chinese Chippendale balustrade and a turned foot newel.
