Description
The Old Hall Hotel is a house that has been converted into a hotel, likely dating from the 17th century, and has undergone significant alterations. It features a pebbledashed exterior and grey slate roofs, with a two and one-storey structure that includes four windows. The left side has a cross gable, while the right side has a 1.5 storey L-shaped wing. The central portion is recessed and has a replaced door set in a Gothick ogee case, with a wide small-pane casement window to the left and a tall 6-pane sash window to the right. The upper storey has a wide small-pane casement as well. The right front gable has a 3-light 10-pane sash window on the lower storey and a near-flush 16-pane sash window above it. The left cross-gable features similar sashes and a very small, low 12-pane casement window in the loft. There are three rendered chimneys: one on the left lateral side, one on the right end gable, and one on the ridge where the central and right roofs meet.
Inside, the hotel has been extended to the rear, while the front portion retains oak-framed walls, with the framing exposed on the main wall parallel to the front, likely indicating the original rear wall. There is a flying stair, probably from the early 19th century, with each rail supported by two turned balusters per step and curtails, as well as shaped brackets.
