The hall has a rich and cherished history. It is believed to have been built in the 1720s for the Myers family, although evidence remains of an earlier house, possibly from the 16th or 17th Century. It then passed to the Cunliffe Lister family in the early 19th Century and then the Smith family. It was bought in 1908 by George Douglas of the Bradford Dyers Association.

On the death of George's son Keith, in 1947, it was taken over by the West Riding County Council and was used as a home for the elderly. In 1990 it was sold for private use and has been in the same family ownership since.

The sale of Farfield Hall provides a rare opportunity. In need of restoration and modernisation. The potential is vast and the sale presents a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire a genuine trophy property in a beautiful setting.
