Description
Slate Hall Farmhouse is a house dating from the 17th century, with an extension added in the early 19th century. The original structure is timber framed and roughcast rendered, topped with handmade red clay tiles, while the extension is built of red brick in Flemish bond with a slate roof. The house consists of four bays oriented approximately northeast to southwest, with the main aspect facing southeast. It features an axial chimney stack located in the second bay from the southwest end and a wing at the rear. There is also a chimney stack at the northeast end and a 19th-century extension beyond it, along with an external chimney stack at the southwest end. A conservatory was added in the 20th century at the western angle. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has a 20th-century glazed door at the front of a tiled gabled porch, with three 20th-century casement windows on each floor. The northeast extension includes a six-panel door with the upper four panels glazed, a fanlight with radiating tracery set in a segmental brick arch, and one double-hung sash window with 16 lights, all dating from the early 19th century. On the first floor, there is another double-hung sash window with 16 lights from the early 19th century, as well as one from the 20th century. Inside the original building, the ground floor features plain-chamfered transverse beams, while the first floor has transverse and axial beams that are plain-chamfered with lamb's tongue stops. The wallplates display face-halved and bladed scarfs.
