Description

Chartersfield Hall, also known as Wyfold Cottage on Ordnance Survey maps, is likely the former estate bailiff's house, built between 1872 and 1878 by George Somers Clarke the elder for Edward Hermon, a cotton manufacturer. The building is constructed of English-bond red brick featuring blue brick diapering, stone dressings, and some timber-framing. It has a plain tile roof with stone coping on the gable ends and crested ridge-tiles. The brick lateral and axial stacks have tall shafts with corbelled brick caps and strings.

The hall displays an asymmetrical design in a robust Tudor-Gothic style and consists of two storeys. The entrance front features a large projecting lateral stack on the right adorned with brick diaperwork and small fire-windows, along with set-offs. The upper section has stone weathering that incorporates a gablet with an armorial device. To the left, there is a lean-to porch with a wooden arcaded front on a low wall.

The left side of the building has two staggered gables; the left one projects while the right one features open bracing, timber-framing, and jetties, with what appears to be an oven projection below. The right return also has a braced and timber-framed gable that jetties over a stone bay window on the ground floor, with the ground floor projecting and covered by a lean-to roof. At the rear, there is a small single-storey service wing.

While the interior has not been recorded, the room to the right of the main entrance contains a wide fireplace with a low moulded segmental arch and two fire-windows.
