SK 63 NW GAMSTON HALL FARM COURT
(north side)

3/61 Hall Farmhouse

11.8.75 II

Farmhouse. C18 and C19. Coursed hydraulic limestone rubble with
red brick patching. C19 slate roof. 2 off-centre red brick
ridge stacks. 2 storeys plus garret, 4 bays. Part glazed porch
on ashlar coped brick plinth with slate lean-to roof, inner
doorway with part glazed door. Either side are single tripartite
casements, further left is a single tripartite glazing bar
casement. Above are 2 tripartite glazing bar casements and to
the right a single small glazing bar casement. Rear rubble wall
with arched doorway now blocked with rubble. Interior. Some
chamfered beams. Bressumer fireplace flanked by single C18 4
fielded panel cupboards. Walls 18 inches to 2 feet thick. Local
tradition says that this was originally the mediaeval chapel of
Gamston whose location is now uncertain, however the north-south
axis of the farmhouse on an unrestricted site would appear to
cast some doubt on this. It is possible that the stone from this
chapel was re-used in an earlier building on this site and then
subsequently re-used in the present building.
