Description
Stormy Hall House and Stormy Hall Cottage is a farmhouse dated 1827, as indicated on the door lintel, which features the initials M. and H.D. The building is constructed from coursed herringbone-tooled sandstone and has a roof that has been renewed with ridged concrete tiles, along with stone dressings. It likely represents a series of rebuilds of an older farmhouse.
The structure is two storeys tall with a basement and consists of three bays. It has a high basement plinth with a small window on the right side. A perron leads to the central six-panel door with the dated lintel. The windows are modern casements fitted into old openings, which have heavy tooled-and-margined lintels and projecting sills. There is a right-side pent extension with wide modern windows and a left-side pigsty extension. The roof features stone coping, curved kneelers, and corniced end chimneys.
On the rear elevation, there is a half-glazed central door, flanked by late 19th-century sash windows and 20th-century casements above, all set in original openings with sills and lintels similar to those at the front. The right extension has a boarded door beneath a lintel inscribed with HD 1788 BM, which appears to have been reset. Above it, there is a small fixed light and another to the right, along with a blocked feeding chute on the right side and additional features on the right return.
