Description
High Cark Hall is a late 17th-century farmhouse constructed of roughcast stone with a slate roof. The original building comprised four bays, with a lower two-bay section added to the left. A dripstone runs along the first-floor windows. The windows are double-chamfered cross-mullioned; the ground-floor windows have label moulds extending continuously across the first two bays. The central entrance is distinguished by a decorated lintel bearing the initials 'RAM', and is topped with a 19th-century panelled door. Gable-end stacks are present. To the left, two entrances are provided, one with steps, and a small window is located on the first floor. A return lean-to extension features a 20th-century casement window.
The rear elevation includes a gabled wing with small stair windows and a 20th-century casement window to the left. The lower right section has 20th-century casements on the ground floor and a small first-floor window.
The interior of the farmhouse features ovolo-moulded beams. The staircase has turned balusters, although these are missing from the first flight, alongside square newels and a moulded handrail. A fireplace includes a bressumer, spice cupboard, and fire crane. The lower section is believed to retain an upper cruck truss. Group value derives from its representation of a traditional rural dwelling.
