Description
Hall Farm Cottage is a house dating from the early 17th century, with some earlier fragments. It has one-and-a-half storeys and a three-cell layout, featuring a lobby entrance. The building is timber-framed and rendered, with 20th-century pantiles on the front slope of the roof, double roman tiles on the rear slope, and pantiles on a later lean-to along the back wall. An internal chimney stack has a plain red brick shaft. The ground storey has three 2-light 19th-century small-paned casement windows, while the upper storey features three gabled dormers with similar windows. There is a small enclosed gabled porch with a plank door.
To the east of the chimney stack, one-and-a-half bays of the frame are notably wide. In the upper part of the gable wall, a passing brace is visible, cutting through a short side-tie to the outer wall. On the ground storey, a heavy main ceiling beam with chamfers and scroll-stops with groove appears to be a later addition. This section of the house may contain a fragment of a medieval aisled building. The remainder of the frame has higher ceilings on the ground storey, substantial studding, and reversed bracing. The upper rooms are ceiled off at collar level, and no part of the roof structure is visible.
