Spittal Farm

Spittal Farm is an early 19th century, two-story, four-bay farmhouse which has been altered later. The farmhouse is harled with painted margins and stone cills, featuring stone mullion windows.

The south (entrance) elevation has a part-glazed timber door with a plate glass fanlight to the left of centre, flanked by bipartite windows to the right and a modern window to the left. The first floor features a bipartite window to the right of centre, a small window to the outer right, a window to the left of centre, and a further bipartite window to the outer left.

The north elevation includes a projecting stair tower that breaks the eaves to the right of centre, with a small opening at ground level and a window on the first floor. A lower, lean-to extension extends to the left, featuring three windows, a small modern porch, and a small window to the outer left.

The first floor south bays 1, 3, and 4 retain an 8-pane glazing pattern, while the north side incorporates 6-pane and plate glass glazing, all within timber sash and case windows. Plate glass glazing is used in the modern windows elsewhere. The roof is covered in graded grey slates and features coped ashlar stacks with cans and thackstanes, along with ashlar coped skews.

A range of single and two-story pantiled buildings form a U-shaped courtyard, with the farmhouse situated to the southwest. These buildings are constructed from coursed and random rubble, with ashlar quoins and voussoirs.

The south range is single-story and has a piend roof, incorporating a stable and gig house with a part louvred window and door to the right, a part-blocked segmental headed carriage arch to the left, and a coped ashlar stack off-centre to the right. A similar low range extends eastward, turning towards the south range.

The west elevation features an opening to the right, partially damaged, and a triple-piended wing with sliding timber doors projecting to the west, forming cattle courts.

The north range includes the south elevation of a lower bay to the right, with an abutting wall at right angles to the outer right, a cart arch to the right of centre with a door beyond to the right, and a wide, square-headed opening to the left. A taller cartshed and loft range adjoins to the west, with three cart arches and hayloft granary openings above to the right and left. An advanced, taller threshing barn is attached to the left, featuring a door to the right and a large hoist door in the gable end.

Rear elevations exhibit a variety of elements, including a further hoist door and buttresses. Boundary walls are semicircular, coped rubble walls.
