Description
Wades Green Hall is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century, featuring alterations and additions. It is constructed of white painted brick with areas of timber framing, topped with slate and tile roofs. The building has two storeys and an attic, arranged in three bays, with a rear (west) wing that forms an "L" shaped plan. The entrance is a six-panel recessed door with panelled lining and reeded pilasters, sheltered by a segmental arched hood supported by an oak framed trellis. The windows have been replaced with three-light flush casements on both the ground and first floors, set in frames with projecting sills, stiles, and heads. The three large timber framed gabled dormers feature leaded wrought iron casements, decorative apex timbering, and barge boards with finials. The rear (west) side displays timber framing above the first floor and on the north gable. A large projecting stack is located at the north gable, accompanied by a four-stepped horse mounting block with moulded platform edges at its base. The central square stack has arched recessed panels on all four faces. The front roof slope is tiled, while the rear (northwest) wing is built of red brick with a slate roof.
Inside, the east building features a floor made of small square stone slabs set diagonally. There is a section of an original external wall with small framing and a sealed-up mullion window topped by an ovolo moulded bressumer. The interior includes ovolo moulded and deep bevelled beams, all with stops, and a wide oak staircase with spiral balusters, a heavy handrail, and panelled newels with cappings. On the first floor, there are two-panel Jacobean doors, exposed timbers, a sealed-up window in the north gable, oak flooring, and deep bevelled beams. The rear wing has flat ceiling joists in the medieval style and a large-section medieval beam that is moulded on one side and deep bevelled on the other, likely a repositioned inglenook bressumer. The house is locally believed to have been the home of General Wade.
