Description
Castle Farm is an estate farm complex dating from 1860, marked by a datestone over the entrance. It was built for E H Turton of Upsall Castle. The structure features coursed squared sandstone and Welsh slate roofs, with some areas replaced by corrugated iron. The architectural style is Gothic freestyle in parts. The complex is mainly single storey, with a two-storey dovecote and storage building, as well as a three-storey granary, all arranged around three sides of a courtyard.
The entrance range is located to the north and includes a symmetrical single-storey section with a gabled gatehouse featuring a pointed-arched wagon entrance, bargeboards, and a wrought iron finial. Above, there is a square bell tower with short lancet windows and a pyramidal roof topped by a weathervane. The granary has a pointed wagon door beneath a coat of arms, slit vents at first-floor level, and a projecting second-floor band with a pointed arch blind arcade. Its hipped roof includes triangular pigeon holes. The gable end of the barn features two lancets topped by an oculus. The storage building to the west has a cart entrance, a lozenge inscribed with "EHT," and a two-light window with an oculus above, along with iron cresting on the roof.
The west range includes a dovecote that is square in plan, with chamfered windows and a first-floor band, topped by a half-hipped roof covered in fishscale tiles. There is a later cartshed adjoining the north-west corner of the entrance range, which is not of special interest.
