Description

Old Laund Hall, also known as Lower Old Hall, is a house that may date back to the 16th and 17th centuries. It is partly in ruins and stands three storeys tall, constructed of rubble with a central chimney. The front features a ruined porch that has a Tudor arched door leading to another Tudor doorway in a ruined wing. To the right, there is a plain doorway and a six-light window with glazing bars. On the first floor, there is a seven-light window, while the second floor has four-light windows. All the windows are made with stone mullions, some of which are hollow chamfered or plain chamfered, with a few featuring ovolo moulding, including one window with bold double ovolo moulding. The right-hand return of the building has a large moulded corbel above the centre window on the top floor, with a blocked window in the gable above. The ruined wing has very thick walls and contains two Tudor fireplaces. Inside, there is an inglenook fireplace, and it is said to have stone stairs and vaulted cellars or passages beneath. The building presents a complex interpretation due to the presence of much reused material.
