Hunwick Hall North West And North East Ranges

Hunwick Hall comprises the north-west and north-east ranges of a former manor house, now used as farm outbuildings. The structure dates to the medieval period, with subsequent alterations throughout its history. The building is constructed of sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings, and features roofs of concrete tiles, pantiles, asbestos and Welsh slate.

The north-west range is two storeys high and consists of four sections of two and five bays respectively. The section at the left was altered around 1983 featuring a concrete-tiled roof, renewed openings and a porch. The adjacent section contains vehicle doors and may have originally served as the courtyard entrance; it is covered by a pantiled roof. The remaining parts of this range incorporate a variety of window openings, mostly dating to the late 18th or early 19th century, with pitching holes positioned over inserted vehicle doors and stable windows. A four-centred arch is visible near the right end of the building.

The north-east range is two storeys high with four bays and a projecting pent roof to the right. A moulded four-centred arch is present on the left side, while wide steps lead to a first-floor entrance on the right side. A small blocked square opening is visible under the eaves to the right, along with a similar opening above the steps; these are accompanied by an inserted door and pitching hole. The right return gable features a large, blocked two-centred arched window from which the tracery has been removed.

An NMR drawing from 1981 (RB 81/968) reveals the interior to contain roof trusses with braced, shortened principals terminating at the collar, an upper king-post, and two levels of purlins.

At the time of survey, the building was in a ruinous condition, with the exception of the renewed portion of the west range. A brick pent projection from the east range is not considered to be of particular interest.
