Description

Lightwood Hall Farmhouse is a brick building with slate roofs, featuring a two-unit, two-storey design that dates back to its earliest construction. The house has a central baffle entrance and has been extended to the west with a single bay and a rear wing. A nogged string course from the original building has been replicated in the later work. The original range includes a central doorway set in an added gabled porch, flanked by three-light casement windows with chamfered wood mullions and cambered brick heads. There is a cambered head above the doorway that may have been a former window. The 19th-century extension has identical windows, and the brickwork shows clear signs that the current windows were inserted later. The original range has an axial stack, with an additional stack placed axially serving the later addition.

Inside the building, little original detail remains. Some internal walls are reportedly timber framed, and there is a ceiling in a ground floor room that seems to pre-date the current structure, featuring two cross beams that are roughly chamfered and pegged.
