Description

Moat Hall Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. It is constructed of coursed squared gritstone with stone dressings and has a stone slate roof. The farmhouse features stone gable end stacks with plain bands and stone coped gables with moulded kneelers. It has two storeys and three bays.

The entrance is roughly central, featuring a doorway with a large lintel and a plank door. To the east of the doorway, there is a 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion window. Further east, there is an uneven glazing bar sash window set in a chamfered stone surround, with a dripmould above. To the west, there is an early 19th-century glazing bar sash window in a flush surround, with a similar window above it. Just to the east, above the door, is another 3-light recessed and chamfered window with the central light stepped slightly higher. Beyond this, there is another uneven glazing bar sash window in a flush surround.

The remains of a moat can be found to the north and west of the house.
