Description
Wharton Hall is a house, now a residential home, dating from the mid-18th century, with alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of rendered brick and features Welsh slate gabled-end roofs. It has three storeys and a double depth plan with a roughly central hall and stair at the rear.
The front elevation has three storeys and a regular, though not quite symmetrical, arrangement of three windows. It includes end tracks, a dentilled cornice, and 4-pane horned sash windows on the first and second floors. The doorway, which is slightly left of centre, features a six-panel door under a fanlight with a panelled soffit and is flanked by three-quarter columns in the reveal. This entrance is now set between two Victorian bays; the bay to the left has a window arrangement of 2:4:2 sashes, while the bay to the right has 2:3:2 sashes. Both bays are connected at cornice level by open ironwork decorative railings. There is a Victorian extension recessed to the left and a long 1940s extension recessed to the right, both with slate roofs.
Inside, the hall features a good dog-leg stair with turned balusters that rises the full height of the house, along with panelled doors in deep reveals with moulded surrounds.
