Description
Edward Eccles Church Hall, built in 1910-11 by Wilkinson and Crawley, is a church hall located on Front Street in Earsdon. It was given by Edward Eccles, J.P. The building is constructed from hammer-dressed irregularly-coursed sandstone with ashlar dressings and features a graduated Lakeland slate roof with stone gable copings. The hall is nearly symmetrical, consisting of one storey with seven bays and a lower two-bay left wing.
The outer bays have deep chamfered surrounds to elliptical-headed double boarded doors located in half-octagonal porches. There are wood mullioned and transomed windows that break the eaves in the third and fifth bays, topped with hipped dormers. Tall sloping buttresses define the bays, and the set-back left wing is designed in a similar style. The roof has swept eaves and a central truncated slate-hung bellcote/ventilator. The walls and piers feature flat stone coping on square piers and ramped walls that flank the steps leading to the door in the first bay.
