Description

The steading at Todhall House is a large complex dating from the mid-19th century. It is constructed from whin rubble with droved yellow ashlar dressings and features slate roofs throughout. The layout includes a courtyard and five parallel ranges, which house a former engine house, a mill, and pens for cattle and pigs. Most of the buildings are single storey, although some ranges have lofts.

On the south elevation, the central block has nine bays, featuring nine arcaded, depressed-arched cart entrances, with the central entrance being taller and wider than the others. Above each arch is a single square-headed loft opening, while two of the right arches are blocked. The lower single storey flanking wings each have a segmental-headed cart entrance, along with additional doors and windows.

A long single storey range on the east side connects to the taller central block, which includes the former engine house at the rear, where a portion of the chimney still stands. The west elevation is defined by the five piended gable ends of the parallel ranges. At the rear of the north block, there is an L-plan grain store with a ramp leading to an upper loft entrance and additional cattle pens.
