Description

Newmoor Hall is a house dating from approximately 1720, though it incorporates fabric from an earlier structure. The interior was altered around 1870 and again around 1950, when a rear wing was removed. The front elevation is of squared stone with cut stone dressings, while the other elevations are of rubble. The roof is primarily stone flags, with Welsh slates on the kitchen wing and the remnants of the demolished rear wing. The architectural style is Baroque, possibly influenced by Vanbrugh.

The main house is two storeys high with eight narrow bays. Features include a chamfered plinth and rusticated quoins. The main entrance, located in the fourth bay, is an old flush-panelled door set within an architrave flanked by fluted pilasters supporting a pulvinated frieze and cornice. The windows are 12-pane sash windows set in raised surrounds with alternating blocks and broad stepped keystones. The gables are coped and sit on moulded kneelers, with stepped and corniced ridge and end stacks. Returns to the front show small boarded attic windows, and there are several blocked openings in the lower part of the right return.

A lower kitchen wing is attached to the left side of the main house, featuring two wide bays. This wing has renewed 12-pane sash windows on the right side and a blocked doorway and window. The left gable of the kitchen wing is coped and sits on moulded kneelers, with a truncated brick stack. The left return of the kitchen wing shows a blocked stone-surrounded window on the first floor.

The rear elevation of the house reveals earlier massive squared masonry in the lower courses on the left end, potentially dating back to the medieval period.
