Newland Hall Farmhouse

Newland Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse that was formerly the manor house of the Coventry Priory estate. It likely has origins from the 15th century, with work from the 16th and 17th centuries, and extensive alterations in the 19th century. The ground floor is primarily constructed of regular coursed sandstone, while the front gable, rear, and parts of the right return side are made of 19th-century brick. The roof is plain-tiled from the 20th century, and there is a 19th-century brick end stack. The building features a two-unit plan, although it was originally T-shaped, and consists of one storey and two attics. It has a splay plinth and a one-window range.

The entrance is located in the gable end and features a mid-20th-century ribbed door on the left. To the right and on the first floor are three-light 20th-century wood mullioned and transomed windows. The 16th and 17th-century double-chamfered openings have hood moulds. Above these openings are four re-used stone head corbels dating from around 1300, positioned at regular intervals. The gable displays exposed rafters and a tie beam, along with a two-light 20th-century attic casement and brick segmental arches. The left return side may have originally extended further to the left and contains a three-window range. The 16th and 17th-century double-chamfered mullioned windows include two with two lights and one with four lights, all featuring hood moulds. Other windows are from the 20th century, including a three-light casement on the right and a raked half-dormer above, along with a two-light staircase window below the eaves.

Inside, the former kitchen, now subdivided, has a large sandstone open fireplace with a cambered bressumer and a ceiling beam with stepped stop-chamfering. There is a 19th-century winder staircase. The first-floor room, also subdivided, features early 17th-century panelling with dados on two walls, a closet door with H-L hinges, and cupboard doors with butterfly hinges. Blocked fireplaces reveal the lower parts of fluted pilasters of the overmantel beneath a lowered ceiling. The roof trusses, possibly from the 15th century, have trenched purlins, some stop-chamfering, and wind braces. The house remains a fragment of a much larger building.
