Arnford FarmhouseArnford Farmhouse is a historic building in Hellifield, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The farmhouse was constructed in about 1700 as a pair of mirror-image semi-detached houses. Nikolaus Pevsner describes it as "a very remarkable building",[1] and Joan Thirsk argues that it must have been constructed by two heirs to shares of the estate.[2] In the 20th century, the two houses were combined, and in 1958, the building was grade II* listed.[3] The building is constructed of stone with millstone grit dressings, and a stone slate roof with kneelers. It has two storeys and is eight bays wide. Each house has a plinth, and contains a central doorway with a moulded surround, a pulvinated frieze and a moulded hood. It contains cross windows with hood moulds, and a gabled dormer with a chamfered mullioned window, a kneeler and a spike finial. Inside, there is an inglenook fireplace.[1][3] See alsoReferences
