Description

Lyme Green Hall is a small country house dating to circa 1912, with later additions and alterations made in the 1930s. The house is constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and a slate roof with lead flashings. It is two storeys high with an attic.

The front elevation has three bays arranged symmetrically. A central porch was added later, featuring a moulded doorcase with a lugged surround and a triple keystone that projects through a broken open pediment. Pilaster strips flank the porch, and the top has cyma-moulded coping. Sash windows with 3 x 4 panes are positioned above the porch and on both floors at the sides, each with a wedge lintel designed to mimic voussoir blocks, featuring chamfered rustication and raised keystones. Ashlar sills are present on all windows. Two dormer attic windows, each with 2 casement lights and flat leaded roofs, are also visible. A two-bay addition is located to the right, displaying chamfered quoins and a staircase sash window with 3 x 7 panes, starting at a mezzanine level and extending through the first floor. These windows feature ascending voussoir blocks with central chamfered keystones, a characteristic pattern for the later building. A further projection of two bays is attached to the right, this featuring a moulded cornice and sash windows of 3 x 5 panes to the ground floor and 3 x 4 panes to the first floor.

The garden front, an addition from the later building phase, has nine bays. It includes a projecting ashlar plinth and chamfered quoins. The central three bays are recessed, with a canted bay window on the ground floor containing a central sash window of 4 x 5 panes and windows to the angles of 2 x 5 panes. A wrought iron balcony railing sits above this, supporting a window of 3 x 4 panes. A two-light dormer is present in the attic. Angled bays are situated in the re-entrant angles, each featuring doorways with moulded surrounds including prominent triple keystones and segmental relieving arches. A recent replacement doorway is on the left, while the right side has French windows, each leaf being 2 x 5 panes. Balconies with wrought iron railings and stone platforms are above the French windows. Projecting three-bay wings extend to either side; the left wing has a ground floor sash window of 3 x 5 panes, and a two-bay projection to the right with low sash windows of 3 x 6 panes and pilaster strips.
