Description
Mowden Hall is a large irregular house built in 1881 for Edwin Lucas Pease, designed in a free neo-Tudor style that shows the influence of architects like Nesfield or Norman Shaw. The building has two storeys and an attic, constructed from strong red brick with decorative moulded brick and terra-cotta elements. It features steeply pitched tiled roofs with tall ridge stacks, numerous gables, and gabled dormers, with some bays projecting forward. The exterior includes bands with raised borders and sunflower decorations, as well as large mullioned and transomed windows made of terra-cotta with interlocking voussoirs. There are one or two large oriel windows supported by big corbels. The garden front has five bays, with a one-storey projection on the right that curves around to a seven-bay entrance front, which features a gabled porch with a pointed, cusped, and multi-moulded doorway. To the right, a lower and more irregular office wing projects, ending in a one-storey outbuilding at a canted angle.
