Farmhouse with Attached Garden Wall and Entrance Gateway at the Farmstead

This is a farmhouse with an attached garden wall and entrance gateway, built around 1870 for the Yorke family of Bewerley Hall. It features deeply-coursed, dressed sandstone and a graduated Welsh slate roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, with three bays and a wing extending to the rear left.

The front entrance gateway is next to a wall that connects to the house and encloses the garden at the front and right side. The house has a central door with an overlight and hoodmould, flanked by four-pane sash windows with projecting stone sills and hoodmoulds. There are three similar windows on the first floor, and an eaves cornice runs along the top. The gable copings are made of ashlar, and there is a corniced stack at the right end. The left end of the roof is hipped, featuring corniced stacks at the ridge of the wing and at the eaves on the left return.

On the right return, there is a round-headed stair-window and a similar attic window. The left return has three 16-pane sash windows on each floor of the wing. The attached garden wall projects from the front-left corner of the house, where there is a gateway, then sweeps down and curves along the roadside. The wall returns twice more to enclose the garden on the right side of the house and has deeply-chamfered copings throughout.

The entrance gateway consists of double iron gates and a side gate with a simple design and scrollwork cresting, supported by monolithic, round-headed gate piers. This farmhouse is part of a planned home farm that formerly served Bewerley Hall, as indicated on old Ordnance Survey maps.
