Woodhall

Woodhall is a late 17th century or early 18th century farmhouse, possibly built around the same time as Beaupre Hall Farm in Outwell, and is one of the few buildings from that period still standing. The farmhouse was altered in the 19th century. It has two storeys and an original T-plan layout, with a single-storey bakehouse to the north. The structure is made of local brown brick with a rendered front elevation and features a slate roof. There are large side stacks at the north and south gables, each with brick offsets and a moulded string course that runs continuously at the first-floor level of the front elevation. The front has three first-floor, four-paned hung sash windows and two canted bay windows flanking a Georgian six-panelled door. The bakehouse has a red pantiled roof with a tumbled parapet gable and an end stack, and it retains its baking oven and large cooking hearth. The interior of the farmhouse mainly features 19th-century details, including a sealed inglenook hearth, some chamfered ceiling beams, and original doors. The cross-entry is obscured by a 19th-century staircase.
