Description

Elstob Hall is a substantial house dating from the early to mid-18th century, with some late 19th-century changes to its windows. It is built from light-red, narrow, hand-made brick in Flemish bond, featuring stone quoins, pantiled roofs, and old brick chimneys. The house has a double-pile plan beneath a two-span roof.

The garden front is two stories high and has five bays, with raised-and-chamfered quoins. There are two stone steps leading to a central, early 19th-century six-panel door with a three-pane overlight above it. The original four-pane sash windows have been replaced and are set under gauged brick flat arches. The steeply-pitched roof has raised verges, shaped kneelers, and end chimneys.

On the rear entrance front, there are also raised-and-chamfered quoins. A 20th-century door is located to the left of the center. The central mid-wall features an early 19th-century Venetian stair window with an intersecting-tracery head under a gauged brick arch, flanked by replaced 12-pane sashes. The roof details are identical to those on the garden front.

Inside, there are several six-panel doors with architraves, and a two-panel door in the staircase hall. The open-well, cut-string staircase has three flights plus a landing rail, with two balusters per tread that alternate between fluted and iron twist designs on turned bases, and a moulded, ramped handrail. The stair window is adorned with fluted pilasters and a Greek Doric entablature.
