He greatly extended the house to its present size. At about the time of his death, the family acquired the house for their own and built a new Vicarage and kept the old house for themselves. Hall Farm is originally tudor. It has been extensively rebuilt in very recent times. It had a wonderful dark oak staircase. Hall Farm used to be the main farm in the centre of the village; it and its steading are now a small housing estate, and the land is now farmed from Lowergate Farm.
