Description
The former dining hall, built between 1887 and 1889 by Charles Lancaster, is part of a self-contained cottage home complex. It is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and has a slate roof. The building is single-storey and consists of three rows of ten bays. It features a stone base, a top entablature, and a balustrade. The central bay projects forward and includes a tetrastyle Corinthian portico with pilasters. The main entrance is round-headed and has a complete fanlight, frieze, and cornice. The flanking bays are adorned with rusticated brick pilasters and stone archivolts. The windows are designed with banded round arches and shell tympana, along with panelled aprons.
A square tower is present, with projecting bays that display clock faces and pediments, all framed with stone surrounds. The tower has a domical vault in three stages, featuring cornices and louvres beneath the top stage. The returns of the building are similar in design. At the rear, there is a central entrance that originally had a two-light overlight and two flanking two-light windows, which have been blocked since 1984. The entrance is topped with a consoled open pediment, and the flanking bays project forward, showcasing fielded panels.
