Description
East Hall Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse that underwent renovations in the early to mid-19th century, including the addition of a front porch on the south side. The building is constructed of red brick with random black headers in Flemish bond and features an old red tile M-shaped roof, while the porch has a slate roof. This large house has two stories, a cellar, and attics, facing south with two parallel roofs covering the front and rear sections.
The layout includes a central entrance and end chimneys, with a lower hip-roofed extension at the west end of the south range. The south front is adorned with two gabled dormers on the roof slope, which have cusped bargeboards and 3/3 pane sash windows. A crenellated parapet connects the chimneys across the central valley at the gable ends. The first floor has flat gauged arches over three casement windows, while the ground floor features cambered wide arches above triple-sash windows with configurations of 1/1, 2/2, and 1/1 panes. There are also two blocked openings in the west extension. A central first-floor window has been modified to serve as French doors leading to a brick and slate porch, which has a gable parapet and a round arched entrance.
