10/116 Waddington Hall 16.11.1954 GV II

House, possibly early C17th, rebuilt c.1900. Sandstone rubble with stone slate roof. H-plan. At the west the cross-wings project forward to form a courtyard. Both have gables with copings and the 3 walls facing the courtyard are topped by a balustrade with square balusters. The right-hand cross-wing has buttresses. On the ground floor is a 2-light mullioned window with inner hollow chamfer and outer chamfer. On the 1st floor is an early C18th cross window with an inner chamfer and an outer cyma-moulded surround. Above is a 2-light mullioned attic window of c,1900. All the windows of the left-hand cross-wing appear to be of c.1900. On the ground floor is a 5-light mullioned window with Tudor-arched heads to the lights. On the flat floor is a 10-light mullioned and transomed window. The attic has a 2-light mullioned window. The central section has a 2-light mullioned window with inner ovolo and outer rebate. To its right is a one-light window with moulded surround. On the 1st floor are 2 2-light double-chamfered mullioned windows, re-tooled and with cinquefoiled ogee heads to the lights. These are probably re-used from elsewhere. Across the angle with the right-hand cross-wing is a moulded doorway with Tudor-arched head. Above is a carved coat of arms under a shaped coping. At the rear all the windows appear to be of c.1900, in keeping. The south cross-wing has a 2-storey canted bay window. The south wall of this cross-wing has a C17th mullioned window of 4 lights with inner ovolo and outer chamfer. Interior not fully inspected, but rear of hall has wooden doorway with ogee head, probably C17th.
