Description

Hallfield House is a farmhouse dating from the mid-17th century, with later alterations and additions. It is constructed of deeply coursed, squared gritstone and features a stone slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan with a gabled entrance front and a rear wing that was rebuilt in 1977. It stands three storeys high with an attic and consists of four bays.

The exterior includes double-chamfered mullion windows and a plinth. A 20th-century door is set in a double-chamfered surround between the third and fourth bays. There is a projecting lateral stack located between the first and second bays. The ground floor features a 2-light window in bay 1 and 3-light windows in the other ground floor bays, with the window in bay 2 having been renewed. On the first floor, there is a 2-light window in bay 2 and 3-light windows in bays 3 and 4, all with dripmoulds. The second floor mirrors the first floor's window arrangement, with dripstones over the windows in bays 3 and 4. Gabled dormers are present in bays 3 and 4, each featuring a blind 3-light attic window with a dripstone and pigeon holes above. Water spouts are located to the right of each dormer. The gables are adorned with moulded kneelers and copings, although the finials have been removed. A corniced ashlar end stack is situated to the right.

The rear of the house has later square-faced mullions, and the dripmould on the first floor has been removed. On the left return, there is a 4-light double-chamfered mullion and transom window on the first floor, also with a dripmould. A similar 2nd floor window features a hoodmould, while a blind 2-light mullion window in the attic has a dripmould above. On the right return, each floor has one 2-light double-chamfered mullion window under a dripmould, with a dripstone above the attic window.

Inside, the ground floor room to the right showcases a 17th-century plaster overmantle decorated with lilies and roses, beneath a frieze featuring fish, fruit, and mermaids playing harps, all topped with a cornice.
