Description

Camwell Hall Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid or late 15th century, with later additions from the late 16th century, mid-17th century, and early 19th century. The building features a timber frame with plaster and painted brick, topped by an old tile roof. It has three bays and stands two storeys high, with a cellar on the northwest elevation and gables at each end. The ground and first floors have early 19th-century sash windows. The house has a jettied section on curved brackets on the south side. The entrance is located towards the north, beneath a 17th-century chimneystack, and features wide planks and a plain porch.

On the ground floor, there is a mid to late 17th-century square window bay with a brick base, containing ten lights that are mullioned and transomed with ovolo mouldings. To the left of this bay is a two-light window with an ovolo centre and diamond side-mullions, while to the right is a two-light leaded casement with an ovolo mullion. The first floor has a central, 17th or 18th-century four-light, mullioned, diamond-leaded casement.

To the west on the north side, there is a two-bay wing, with the nearest bay dating from the 16th century. This wing features a three-light, diamond-mullioned window on the ground floor and two five-light, diamond-mullioned windows on the first floor.

Inside the main block, the centre bay has a crown post roof that is octagonal with a moulded capital and base. The ground floor includes a late 16th-century moulded floor beam and fireplace lintel. The north wing was remodelled in the mid to late 17th century and contains a fireplace and a moulded floor beam.
