Ryecroft Hall

Ryecroft Hall is a house that has been converted into offices, built around 1860. It is constructed of ashlar stone and has a slate roof. The building is large and L-shaped, consisting of four by seven bays and two storeys, plus an attic level. It features a projecting plinth, continuous bands at the first floor and eaves level, and a coped parapet that slopes over the main gables. The first and fourth bays are slightly set forward and gabled.

The entrance porch located in the third bay has decorative doors under a Tudor arch, diagonal buttresses, and a pierced parapet. The windows typically have two or three lights, with double-chamfered mullions and transoms, as well as hoodmoulds. Other window types include square and canted bays, the latter topped with a castellated parapet, and oriel windows at the first floor. The gables are adorned with ornate finials, and the roof is steeply pitched. Many internal features remain intact. The hall was formerly the residence of Abel Buckley, a cotton manufacturer.
