Description
Sadberge Hall is a country house dating to 1896, built in the Queen Anne style. It is constructed of light-red engineering brick in English bond, with a roof of plain clay tiles and moulded brick chimney stacks. The house has a double-range plan, incorporating a gable-fronted wing on the garden front and a tower on the centre rear elevation.
The garden front features a two-storey, four-bay section alongside a projecting, gable-fronted two-storey and attic wing. A chamfered plinth, a band between storeys, and projecting brick courses mark the facade. It has 18-pane sashes with flush red sandstone sills and segmental heads; the ground-floor windows also have moulded brick keystones, and the steeply-pitched roof has overhanging eaves and verges. Two small dormers with hipped roofs are positioned above the four-bay section. End and ridge chimneys have conjoined, filleted stacks with oversailing brick courses at the top.
The right return showcases a stepped external chimney with a date plaque, and a gable-fronted two-storey and attic section that projects forward. This section mirrors the garden front with identical 18-pane sashes and a round-arched recessed doorway. The main roof is hipped at the rear. The rear elevation consists of a three-storey, square-plan tower with bands separating the storeys, featuring four-pane sashes. A ground-floor window is accented by a cast-iron balcony, topped with a parapet on a Lombard frieze, and crowned by a low-pitched pyramidal roof. A single-storey lean-to adjoins the return of the tower.
The interior features four-panel doors in architraves, panelled internal window shutters, and a closed-string staircase with splat balusters. An altered single-storey range across the left return is not considered to be of special architectural interest.
