Howlet Hall

Howlet Hall is a farmhouse built around 1750, with a later-altered wing. It features herringbone-tooled sandstone on a chamfered plinth, a pantile roof, and brick stacks. The main entrance front is two storeys high with five windows, and includes a 1½-storey, one-window wing on the right. The left-of-centre entrance has a panelled door beneath a radial fanlight, set in a round-arched Gibbs surround. Original 12-pane sash windows are present throughout, framed by stone sills and architraves. The eaves cornice is cavetto-moulded and returns at each end, while the gables are coped with moulded kneelers. The front range has end stacks and a double-span roof. The wing features a board door and 6-pane sashes with plain sills on both floors, with vertically tooled lintels above all openings. The right end has a coped gable, shaped kneeler, and stack.

On the garden front, there are two storeys with four windows and a wing on the left. The left-of-centre entrance has a panelled door beneath a small pane over light, set in an architrave. To the left of the door are 20th-century replacement windows, while to the right is a 12-pane sash. The left end has a 16-pane sash, and the right end features a 2-light, 16-pane horizontal sliding sash. The first-floor windows are all 12-pane sashes, with plain raised surrounds and stone sills. The eaves cornice is cavetto-moulded, and there is a right-of-centre stack. The wing has a four-panel door beneath a catslide roof. The gable walls have openings with plain raised surrounds. The left return retains original 8-pane sashes on both the ground and first floors, along with 4-pane attic sashes in both returns.

Inside, there is an open-string, open-well staircase with column-on-vase balusters and a moulded, swept handrail. The left front room on the ground floor features a segment-arched stone chimneypiece with a keyblock, while the kitchen in the wing has a segment-arched chimneypiece with a moulded shelf and a plank cupboard door on butterfly hinges. Most doors throughout the house are six-panel, also on butterfly hinges.
