Barwise Hall and Adjoining Barn and Byre

Barwise Hall, along with the adjoining barn and byre, is a significant building dating from 1579, with a rear stair wing added in 1676. The hall is constructed of coursed rubble with quoins and a plinth, and it has a rendered front that has been colour washed. It features a steeply pitched graduated slate roof with stone copings on all three gables; the stair wing includes kneelers, and there are stepped and corniced stone chimneys, including an embattled cornice at the east end.

The two-storey, four-bay front has ground floor openings beneath a continuous hoodmould that extends around to the rear. The arrangement includes a fire window, a five-light window, an original studded plank door set in an architrave with a paired semicircular head, a four-light window, a three-light window, and an inserted 19th-century plank door. The first floor windows are similar but lack a fire window, with both right-hand windows being three-light. Above the main door, there is a moulded surround featuring a panel with a coat-of-arms, initials, and the date I.S. & A.S. 1579, along with a similar blank panel between the three-light windows on the first floor. The original two- and three-light windows on the west gable and rear are mostly intact, although some are blocked. The stair wing has similar windows and features an initialled and dated lintel (R. & E.D. 1676) above a segmentally-headed door. All original multi-light windows have chamfered surrounds, mullions, and hoodmoulds. For details of the internal features, refer to the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England.

The adjoining threshing barn and byre to the west includes a one-bay 19th-century extension that serves as a house. This part, dating from 1835, is built of coursed, squared rubble and has a shallower-pitched graduated slate roof. It features three byre doors and one wagon door, all with imposts and keystones above segmental heads, along with three windows on the ground floor and one on the upper floor, all unglazed and set in stone surrounds. The barn extension is included under the same roof, but attached 20th-century outbuildings are not part of the listing.
