The home farm of the Ravensworth Estate (HER 646). Built of coursed squared sandstone, it has a curious Dutch-gabled outbuilding. The Hall was named after a leat known as 'The Trench' (HER 4121) which provided a water supply for the pumps at a coal mill (HER 1663) in the north-east corner of the estate. LOCAL LIST
