Description

Old Hall Farmhouse is a house dating from the 16th century, with additions made around 1600. It is constructed of flint with brick dressings and has a pantile roof. The building is a three-cell single range with a porch at the front, a stair turret, and a wing at the rear. It stands two storeys high with an attic. There is an off-centre axial stack to the right, while the internal left gable end stack has been rebuilt. The front of the house was renewed in the 1980s, featuring 19th and 20th century three-light casements with glazing bars, as well as two gabled roof dormers with casements on the right side. The right-hand gable has been rebuilt, and the chimney stack has been renewed. There is a single-storey outshut at the front on the right side, with the right wall made of renewed flint beneath a brick gable that has tumbled brickwork.

The projecting three-storeyed gabled brick porch, dating from around 1600, features pantiles and clasping polygonal buttresses that end in pyramidal finials. The doorway has a semicircular head beneath a renewed rendered pediment with rendered rusticated jambs. A semicircular fanlight with glazing bars is present, along with first and second floor casement windows under rendered pediments; the first-floor window has glazing bars and rendered rusticated jambs. There is a fire insurance plaque beneath the second storey window. At the rear, the central three-storeyed stair turret has four blocked openings and one casement window. To the left is a two-storeyed wing from around 1600, which has a French window added in 1985 in the ground floor gable end. There is a small infill extension with a catslide roof between the stair turret and the wing, and a 19th century single-storey service addition to the left of the wing.

Inside, the farmhouse features ovolo moulded doorcases to the front outshut and the rear wing, as well as a large ovolo moulded doorcase with elaborate stops in the stair turret. There is a moulded lintel above a window in the central bay, and the first floor has principal beams that are chamfered, some with bar stops. The roof has been largely renewed, including a new roof for the rear wing. The internal gable end stack has been removed on the ground and attic floors of the wing, while the first floor has a brick fireplace with an elliptical arch.
