Holly Platt Farmhouse

Holly Platt Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 19th century, with origins in the 17th century. It features rendered rubble with stone dressings and a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has four bays. The entrance is located to the right of the centre, within a two-storey gabled porch. This porch was likely originally a single-storey open porch supported by Tuscan columns, but the ground floor has been infilled, and a single light ground floor window has been added. Above, there is a two-light flat-faced mullioned window with single lights on both the left and right-hand returns. The porch's left and right returns contain late 19th-century plank doors. Each storey has three windows, all of which are two-light flat-faced mullioned sashes with glazing bars. The farmhouse has 17th-century ridge stacks on both the left and right former gables, with the left-hand stack now positioned at the junction with an additional bay and the right-hand stack at the junction with a barn. The interior is not accessible. The farmhouse is reputed to have been a former posting inn before the construction of the Keighley-Kendal turnpike.
