Description

Twemlow Hall is a mansion dating to the late 17th century, substantially rebuilt in the 19th century, with alterations made in 1974. It is constructed of red brick in an English garden wall bond, with a slate roof. The building is two storeys and has an attic, with a five-bay, gabled front. It features a stone plinth, flush stone quoins, and an ovolo-moulded stone door opening topped with a stepped label and a stone tablet bearing the crest of the Booth Family. The doorway now contains a replaced four-panel oak door. Recessed sash windows with glazing bars, stone sills, and flat arches are present at all levels. The three gables have replaced bargeboards and finials; significant gable brickwork was replaced during the 1974 alterations.

The interior was extensively altered in 1974. The Entrance Hall has a square open ceiling well surrounded by Jacobean-style balusters, from which a brass chandelier hangs. A matching staircase is located at the rear (south) featuring twisted balusters, a moulded handrail, and rectangular panelling to the newels and strings. Carved 18th-century fireplaces are found in the Drawing and Sitting Rooms. Original six-panel doors have been replaced with 20th-century oak four-panel doors.
