Brandesburton Hall Hospital

This is a former country house, now a hospital, dating from 1772, with significant alterations and extensions in 1874 and around 1900, and later 20th-century additions. The building is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings and has slate roofs, notable for its many tall brick stacks. It features cill bands, a first-floor band, moulded eaves, a brick parapet with ashlar balusters, and is arranged around a quadrangle plan.

The south, garden front has seven windows, with a central, single-storey ashlar frontispiece containing three sets of glazed doors separated by rusticated pilasters. The central doorway is flanked by Doric columns. Above the doors are three plain sashes. To either side are two-storey canted bay windows, each with three plain sashes. To the right of the bay window is a single plain sash on each floor, and to the left a single-storey projection with glazed doors topped by a brick parapet with ashlar balusters, above which is a single glazing bar sash. A single-storey 19th-century addition is located to the left.

The east entrance front has a slightly off-centre three-window projection containing a three-storey projecting entrance with an Edwardian ashlar porch. This porch features rusticated pilasters, two Doric columns in antis, an ashlar parapet with balusters, a central doorway, and flanking pilasters. Above the doorway is a tripartite sash with ashlar dividing pilasters, surmounted by a brick pediment and a blank lower storey topped by a brick balustrade with corner urns. Either side of the projecting entrance are single plain sashes on each floor. To the left is a two-storey Edwardian addition with a truncated external stack. To the right is a two-window wing with a single-storey Victorian addition containing three plain sashes, above which are two plain sashes.

The irregular north and west fronts are partially obscured by later additions.

The interior was largely remodelled around 1900 and includes a three-flight main staircase with square newels, a moulded handrail, and bulbous turned balusters. An ornate stone fireplace with marble columns is present, alongside a lounge with an ornate 18th-century wooden fire surround. The board room has a good-quality 18th-century wooden fire surround with an Edwardian overmantle and flanking shell alcoves. The dining room features a pair of bolection mould fireplaces with wooden surrounds and plaster overmantles, four fluted Doric columns, two sets of Doric columns in antis, and a glazed circular dome. Throughout the interior are fine wreathed plaster ceilings and panel doors with wooden moulded surrounds.
