GOLBORNE LIGHTSHAW LANE
SJ 69 NW
(north side)
5/15 Lightshaw Hall
15/11/66
II
Farmhouse. C16 timber-framed structure largely rebuilt in
the C18 and C19. English garden wall bond and Flemish bond
brick with graduated stone slate roof. Tall 2-storey range
which takes the form of the earlier timber-framed building
and has a lower 2-storey wing added to front right at a
later date. The brick of the main range is of C17 to C19 but
largely of the early C19 which is when the door and window
openings date from. Bay 1 has 2 blind openings with flat
brick arches. Bay 2 has a replaced casement on the ground
floor and 3-light casement with timber mullions and glazing
bars on the first floor. Both have stone sills and flat
brick arches. Door adjacent to wing which has 2, 3 and 4
light casement windows with cambered and flat brick arches.
Two 3-light casements (as above) to left gable-end.
Horizontally sliding sashes to right return. The timber
frame is only visible externally in the wall plate and in 2
posts at the rear. Ridge chimney stack. Interior is said to
contain 2 Gothic-moulded beams, one on principal posts which
extend through the first floor to support roof trusses with
braced and cusped members. The full extent of the framing is
unknown but is no doubt an important early survival. Moated
site.
