Flodder Hall And Outbuildings

Flodder Hall and its outbuildings, now partly a separate house, are a farmhouse dating from the 17th century or early 18th century, with alterations and additions made in the 19th century. The structure is built of stone rubble with slobbered mortar, featuring some rock-faced lintels and slate roofs.

The north elevation is two storeys high with an attic and consists of five bays. The first bay is lower than the others, while the fifth bay has a gable with a gable-end stack that has a round shaft. Most windows are topped with rock-faced lintels. The ground floor of the first bay has a small-paned horizontally sliding sash window alongside two sliding sashes, while the second bay features a four-light casement window. On the first floor, the first bay has a small-paned casement, and the second and fourth bays have four-light wooden chamfered-mullioned windows with some leaded glazing. The third bay has a similar two-light window, with a three-light window located in a gabled half dormer above it. The entrance is located in the first bay, and there is a gabled porch with a ball finial and a stone inscription reading "1868/WBW" on the fourth bay, along with a return entrance that has a cambered head. There are two gable-end stacks with paired rounded shafts.

To the east, there is an outbuilding with large entrances and a ball finial. The west elevation consists of two bays with varied fenestration, including some four-light windows, and the second bay is gabled. The south elevation features a two-bay projecting range with ground floor casements, first floor horizontally sliding sashes, and second floor two-light windows, along with gable-end stacks as previously described. There are two bays to the right with varied fenestration, a re-entrant lean-to bay, and a lower bay to the right that has steps leading to a first-floor entrance. The outbuilding includes a lean-to outshut.

Inside, there is a fireplace with a canted lintel inscribed: "1606 TOBIAS KNIPE," and an inset fireplace with a corbelled lintel and cornice. The attic to the north has two upper cruck-trusses, one of which has trenched principal rafters. The attic to the south features two collar and tie beam trusses, one with a cambered tie and collar, and studs for infill between. There are two doors with two panels each. A small cupboard has a linen-fold panel on its door and cock's head hinges. A large cupboard, which was formerly fixed, has panels inscribed with "IKM:1711," while the bottom drawers are marked with "ATK" and "MIK" (Knipe).
