Ramsden Bellhouse Hall

Ramsden Bellhouse Hall is a late 16th-century timber-framed house that was significantly altered in the 18th century with a new facade of red brick. It is two storeys high and has a four-window front with double-hung sash windows featuring glazing bars, set within stuccoed reveals with gauged brick rusticated flat arches. A brick porch projects from the front, containing a six-panel door within an 18th-century doorcase, complete with architrave and a pediment supported by carved brackets. Wide brick buttresses are visible on the front and the south side of the building. The rear of the house has been renovated and extended with a weatherboard gabled wing. The roof is steeply pitched and hipped, covered in old tiles, and has a modillion eaves cornice which is slightly set back from the wall face. Inside, the rooms feature exposed beamed ceilings and four original moulded brick fireplaces with cambered heads.
