Chapel House Farmhouse with attached outbuilding

Chapel House Farmhouse with attached outbuilding is a farmhouse with a stable and hayloft, built in 1774, likely for Thomas Tennant of Chapel House. It is constructed of limestone rubble with gritstone dressings and a graduated stone slate roof.

The main house is a two-storey, three-bay structure with a lower two-storey outbuilding attached to the left. It features rusticated quoins and a plinth. The central entrance has a half-glazed door within a sawn stone surround, with a date stone above displaying "T" and the date "1774". A triangular hood over the door is formed from two pitched stone slabs. Flanking and first-floor windows are tripartite flat-faced mullion windows with plate glass sashes. A blind window sits above the door. All windows have slightly raised surrounds and projecting sills. The building also features stone gutter brackets, moulded kneelers, gable copings, and corniced end stacks. A lead downpipe on the right of the entrance has a fluted hopper head inscribed “I T 1779” in raised letters.

The outbuilding to the left has quoins, two slit vents to each storey, stone gutter brackets, and rendered rubble walling. It has a moulded kneeler and gable coping with a ball finial on the left.

At the rear of the house, a central half-glazed door is similar to the front entrance, with a chamfered lintel and solid jambs. There are four-pane sashes in plain stone surrounds on the ground and first floors, along with a round-arched stair window with glazing bars above the door.

The rear of the outbuilding matches the front elevation. On the left return of the outbuilding, a cart entrance has voussoirs forming a segmental arch, now overlaid with 20th-century sliding garage doors. A round-arched doorway with a board stable door and a blocked overlight is situated to the right, with jambs and voussoirs of well-tooled ashlar. An inserted two-light window is present on the ground floor, centrally positioned. A circular pitching eye is located on the first floor, also centrally.

The interior of the house has a staircase hall with stairs of two straight flights and a half landing. The balusters are of a cup and column design with finely moulded principal balusters and a handrail. Two fielded panel doors open into the front rooms.
