Description

Elmfield Hall is a large house built in the 1850s for F.A. Gatty, and it now serves as an Old Peoples Social Centre. The building is constructed of ashlar stone and features a hipped slate roof with two ridge chimneys. It has a double pile, five-bay symmetrical front block that is two storeys high and designed in a classical style. The exterior includes rusticated quoins and channelled rustication on the ground floor, along with a dentilled eaves cornice.

At the entrance, there is a tetrastyle Corinthian porch with a cornice and a balustraded parapet, which covers double doors framed by a round-headed architrave. Above the porch, a triple window is adorned with an open segmental pediment and a cornice supported by consoles. The building has four windows on each floor; the ground floor windows feature splayed voussoirs, while the first floor windows have decorative iron balconies. At the rear, there is a large service range that is used as a hostel.

Historically, F.A. Gatty and Co. were chemical manufacturers at Hagg Works from 1836 to 1896, and the Gatty family donated the house and its grounds to the Church township.
