This grade II listed farmhouse in Queen Street dates back to the 16th century, but has had many alterations over time. The house is timber framed, with a later cladding of stone, now all rendered, and a slate roof. Internally there is an original moulded plaster ceiling with the arms of Elizabeth I, flanked by the initials "E R" and surrounded by lettering: "HONI : SOIT : QUI : MAL : Y : PENSE". Originally Carlton Hall was the seat of the Hunt family and Thurstan Hunt was born here in 1555. SeeImage
