Description

Smeer Hall is a house built in 1664, with a mid-18th century extension. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and has a roof of stone slate, except for part of the rear pitch which is covered in slate. The building has two storeys with an attic.

The east wall features rebated and chamfered mullioned windows, some of which have been repaired, along with a drip course. On the ground floor, there are two three-light windows and a one-light window to the right. To the left, there is a two-light mullioned window set within a blocked door surround. On the first floor, there are two three-light windows.

At the left, where the taller extension projects forward, there is a single-storey lean-to porch that has a reconstructed two-light mullioned window in its front wall. The extension consists of two bays and has windows with stone surrounds that have a slight chamfer and flat-faced mullions. The ground floor windows are one-light, while the first-floor windows are two-light.

Chimneys are located on the right-hand gable and on each side of the extension. The right-hand gable wall features a three-light window on the ground floor, a two-light window on the first floor, and a two-light window in the attic. At the rear, the extension has windows similar to those on the front and also consists of two bays. To the right on the ground floor, there is a three-light window, and the upper windows are two-light. In the left-hand bay, there is a blocked door with a plain stone surround. The rear wall of the original house has been rebuilt and is covered by a 20th-century lean-to extension.

Inside, the left-hand room of the original house has a firehood bressumer with a mortise for a heck post towards the rear, indicating an original end baffle-entry plan. The ground floor is divided by a plank and muntin partition with adjacent doorways that feature carved doorheads. The doors are made of moulded plank construction, with the right-hand door inscribed: '1664 TW'. The extension includes a re-set fireplace with a shouldered head and a partition wall of framed beaded panelling with a moulded dado.
