Description
Old Hall, formerly known as Millbank House, is a house dating from around 1840. It is built of coursed squared sandstone with a plinth, herringbone-tooled margined quoins, and ashlar dressings, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The building has two storeys and three bays. The central entrance features a six-panel door with sidelights and a patterned overlight, all set in a corniced plain stone surround with a shaped pediment. The flanking canted bays and three first-floor windows contain sashes with fine glazing bars, all having plain stone surrounds. The eaves gutter blocks are positioned below a hipped roof, which has one banded chimney on the left and two on the right return. Inside, there are six-panel doors within architraves; one principal room on the ground floor has a moulded cornice, while another features a vine and honeysuckle frieze. The right garage extension is not of interest.
