Description
Windle Hall is a house built in the late 19th century, with later alterations. It is constructed from coursed, tooled red sandstone, featuring yellow ashlar mullions, dressings, and bands. The roof is made of grey slate, incorporating broad bands of fishscale slates, with blue tile ridge cresting and plain bargeboards on the gables. The building has prominent stone stacks topped with original tall pots, and the tower has a pyramidal roof.
The entrance front consists of a two-storey, two-bay central range flanked by two-storey gabled crosswings. There is a single-storey porch set back between the right crosswing and the main range, and at the right end, there is an external square tower. The porch features a six-panel door with glazed upper panels, bolection moulded lower panels, and a rectangular overlight. A 1/1 sash window is located at the front of the porch, which also has a moulded stone cornice above a flat roof. The windows in the crosswings are tripartite sashes on both floors, with those on the first floor positioned beneath two-centred polychromatic relieving arches. Other windows are single 1/1 sashes beneath stone lintels. The tower has a blind lancet window under a two-centred stone arch on the first floor.
On the right return, there is a two-storey, two-window gabled wall with the tower to the left. The tower features 1/1 sash windows on both floors, detailed similarly to those on the entrance front. The gable wall has a canted bay window on the ground floor to the right, a 6/6 sash window in the centre, and a similar window to the first floor right, along with a 1/1 sash window at the first floor centre. The left return of the building is blank.
Inside, the hall features four-panel doors, panelled window shutters, and moulded ceiling cornices.
