Low Broadwood Hall With Attached Outbuildings And Wall To Right Rear

Low Broadwood Hall is a house dated 1716, with later alterations around 1970, accompanied by attached outbuildings and a garden wall. The construction is of rubble with stone dressings. The house has a 20th-century tile roof, the outbuilding to the left a 20th-century metal roof, and the outbuilding to the right a slate roof. The main house is two storeys high and four bays wide. The third bay features a 20th-century door within a moulded surround, with an angular 4-centred head, sunk panels in the spandrels, and the initials “A” on the lintel along with the date 1716. All windows in the main house are 20th-century replacements. The outbuilding to the left is two storeys and two bays, with two ground floor windows inserted. The outbuilding to the right, formerly a Quaker school, is two storeys and attics, with three bays and an irregular layout. It includes two blocked doors with later windows inserted; the door to the right has a chamfered lintel and pieces of inscribed late 17th or early 18th century stones, potentially tombstones, re-used in the door jambs. The first floor showcases two 2-light mullioned windows and a single-light window, all with chamfered surrounds, and all are now blocked. A similar single-light window is present in the attic. On the left return of the left outbuilding, a boarded door is set within a triangular-headed chamfered surround, likely reused. The rear elevation exhibits a contemporary outshut to the house, with various openings, some featuring chamfered surrounds. The interior has been altered. A wall extends from the rear right end of the right outbuilding, marked by prominent quoins. This wall is a remnant of a 16th-century house that was demolished in the early 20th century and incorporates a single-light window with a chamfered surround and heavy iron bars.
