Guy Hall Farmhouse

Guy Hall Farmhouse is a dwelling, formerly a farmhouse, that likely dates back to the 16th century, and possibly even earlier. The main part of the building is constructed from blue lias rubble, while the left wing features a combination of timber framing and sandstone rubble, with the right gable return rendered. The roofs are very steeply pitched and covered with Welsh slate.

The farmhouse has a compact and lofty main block with gables facing west (towards the road), north, east, and south. There is also a two-storey porch on the left and a lower wing extending beyond it. The porch leads to a lobby opposite a heavy stone stack in the left gable, with a staircase located in the lower wing to the left. The front of the building facing the road has three storeys, with a tiny opening in the upper part of the gable and a single window. The ground floor features a three-light mullioned casement, while the first and second floors each have two-light mullioned casements. The porch has a heavy plank door set in a double ovolo wood frame, complete with heavy strap hinges and some original lock fittings.

Inside, there are large fireplaces with deep bressummers in the main body of the house and in the left wing, next to a newel stone stair that has a semi-circular plan, with the upper flight made of wood leading to a 150 mm newel post. The roof structure is very complex, featuring four gables with purlins supported by curved queen posts. Several broad plank lodged doors can be found throughout the house. The lower wing has substantial heavy timber framing. Additionally, the back of the main fire opening in the lower wing includes a flue bypass system with five small openings in the fire-back that lead up to rejoin the flue halfway. This farmhouse is considered an unusually significant structure of first importance in the area.
