Description

Stapleford Hall Farmhouse is a mid-17th century manor house that has been altered in the 18th and 19th centuries. It features a timber-framed structure with a roughcast exterior and a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The building is arranged in an L-shape, with a main range of three bays running approximately north to south, and axial chimney stacks at each end. There is a crosswing at the south end that extends to the east. A lean-to porch is located at the angle of the L, with an additional lean-to porch further north on the east wall. There is also a single-storey lean-to extension at the north end. The farmhouse has two storeys with an attic.

On the west elevation, there is a glazed door set in a glazed tiled porch from the 20th century. The windows include two 19th-century casement windows, one 20th-century casement window, and one late 19th-century double-hung sash window with four lights. On the first floor, there is one late 19th-century double-hung sash window with four lights and one early 19th-century tripartite double-hung sash window with a configuration of four-16-4 lights. The base wall is made of yellow brick from the late 19th century, with roughcast rendered above.

Inside, there are exposed beams above the ground and first floors that are plain-chamfered with lamb's tongue stops. Above the north ground-floor room, the exposed joists are of a deep section and unchamfered, while elsewhere, the joists are plastered to the soffits. Some framing is exposed in the partition walls. The roof is of butt purlin construction and includes one re-used roll-moulded timber from the early 16th century. A complete 17th-century window located internally lights the first-floor corridor; it has a hardwood frame, wrought iron saddle bars, diamond glazing with muff glass, and leading. There is an 18th-century back stair and plain panelling that rises directly from the kitchen to the attic, in addition to the main stair. The 19th-century alterations include brick base walls, some floors, and windows.
