Description
New Hall is a Grade II* listed house built in 1665, constructed from sandstone rubble with a stone slate roof that is now mostly missing. The building has an L-plan layout and features a symmetrical design with three storeys, including one gabled bay on each side of a three-storey gabled porch. The windows are double-chamfered with mullions and hoods, with the outer bays containing four lights, except for the left-hand ground floor window, which has five lights. The porch includes a three-light window on the first floor and two lights on the second floor, above which is a stone panel carved with a dog. The outer porch doorway has a chamfered surround with 'GT [George Talbot] 1665' inscribed on the lintel, while the inner door has a chamfered surround with a cambered head. The gables are coped with kneelers, and there is a chimney with a brick cap located on the ridge in line with the right-hand side of the porch. Notably, the central part of the left-hand gable wall has collapsed as of June 1985.
The rear wall of the south-west part of the house features a two-light window on both the ground and first floors. To the left, when viewed from the rear, there is a gabled wing with a 19th-century ground-floor window that has a plain stone surround and flat-faced mullion. On the other floors of this wing, there are a four-light and a two-light 17th-century window, with the right-hand first-floor window being blocked. Additionally, there is a 19th-century single-storey gabled porch on the left, with an outer doorway that has a chamfered stone surround and a Tudor arch. The north-east gable wall of the house has three ground-floor windows with plain reveals, a blocked 17th-century window on the first floor, and a two-light window on the second floor.
The interior was not fully accessible during the survey. The front door leads into a corridor between two solid walls, with a 19th-century dog-leg stair featuring stick balusters located at the rear. To the right of the corridor are two rooms: a smaller room at the front and a larger room at the rear, which has boxed beams and a fireplace with a 19th-century grate. To the left of the corridor, the main room is largely filled with debris and has a collapsed boxed beam.
