Description
Westoe Hall is a house dating to circa 1864, designed by J. J. Stevenson for his brother J. C. Stevenson. An addition and alterations were made circa 1876 by T. A. Page. It is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and an irregular tiled roofscape. The house is two storeys high, with a semi-basement and attic. It features a fine, restrained asymmetrical design, drawing on elements from pre-18th century domestic architecture.
A timber, gabled porch with detailed carpentry provides shelter to the entrance, and a half-timbered gable above it is lit by a three-light window. Above this gable, an octagonal glazed lantern with a conical roof rises. A bay to the west of the entrance is set back and contains a staircase window with a hoodmould. The westernmost bay projects forward, with a gabled roof and a ground floor bay featuring mullions and transoms.
The two most easterly bays represent a service wing added circa 1876 (by T. A. Page, with later modifications circa 1896 by J. H. Morton). A prominent feature of this wing is an oriel window supported by a carved, coved bracket; the upper sashes have shaped heads. The majority of the other windows are simple rectangular openings with stone heads and sills.
