Description
Rockylls Hall is a farmhouse dating from the early to mid-17th century. It has two storeys and attics, featuring four windows. The building is timber-framed and plastered, topped with a hipped roof covered in plain tiles, which includes two 18th-century gabled dormers, one of which has an original casement window. There are two impressive axial chimneys made of pink/orange brick, each with six square shafts that are linked at the top.
The windows are three-light casements, with those on the ground floor including transoms. Two windows on the first floor have 17th or 18th-century wrought iron casements with original iron fittings. The entrance door, which dates from the late 18th or early 19th century, has six panels, with the upper pair being glazed. The door is sheltered by a flat canopy supported by fretted console brackets.
Inside, the principal framing members are exposed, showcasing ovolo-moulded main beams and lambstongue chamfer stops, along with a butt-purlin roof. At the right end of the building, two rooms contain reused first-floor members from a house dating around 1550, featuring heavy joists and main beams with scotia and ogee mouldings.
