Description
Byrom Hall is a house built in 1713, as indicated by a lead rainwater head. It is constructed of rendered English garden wall bond brick and has a slate roof. The building features a double-depth central-staircase plan with three sets of two bays and stands three storeys tall. The central panelled door, which has an overlight, is topped by a barrel-shaped canopy supported by enriched brackets. The windows, all replaced by 20th-century casements, have stone sills and keystones. There are continuous bands on the first and second floors and a modillioned eaves cornice. The roof is steeply pitched with gable chimney stacks, and similar windows are found on the sides and rear of the house. Small oval openings are present in the left gable.
Inside, there is a dogleg stair with a heavy rail, rectangular newels featuring sunk panels, and barleysugar balusters on a closed string with a pulvinated frieze. All doors have two fielded panels with bolection mouldings, one of which is marked "cheese room." Some crosswalls are believed to be timber-framed. The lead downpipe, which is no longer present, once had three hedgehogs on the fixing lugs.
