Steeton Hall Farm

Steeton Hall Farm is a house built around 1474 for Sir Guy Fairfax, with 16th-century additions made for Sir William Fairfax. Parts of the building were demolished in the 18th century, and there have been later alterations, including a 20th-century outshut to the right and a porch at the rear that are of no particular interest. The structure is made of magnesian limestone ashlar, with a red brick outshut and stacks, and features a roof of pantiles and stone slates.

The house has two storeys and seven first-floor windows. It has a chamfered plinth that is not continuous and an angle buttress with offsets on the left side. The entrance is located below the sixth window and features a panelled door set under a Tudor arch, with moulded jambs and a cavetto-moulded hood. The windows on the ground floor are three-light, with cavetto-moulded mullions and transoms in chamfered and cavetto-moulded surrounds, topped with cavetto-moulded flat hoods, except for one small chamfered light and an inserted four-pane sash.

On the first floor, there are similar three-light windows and one four-light mullioned and transomed window, but these lack hoods, except for two six-pane sashes that have been inserted into partly blocked similar openings, along with one two-pane sash. The roof is swept, and there are end and ridge stacks with cogged bands. The rear of the building features further similarly moulded mullioned and transomed windows. The interior contains some boxed beams, although it has not been fully inspected.
