Description

Owstwick Hall is a house built in 1829, as indicated by the datestone on the rear. It is constructed of dark brown brick with stone dressings, featuring a timber eaves cornice and a slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has an L-shaped plan with three bays. The entrance includes a four-panel door beneath a fanlight with radial glazing, set within a door-case that has panelled reveals and soffit, supported by attached Doric columns that carry an entablature and blocking course.

On the ground floor, there are 16-pane sash windows with sills under cambered wedge lintels on both sides of the entrance. A first-floor sill band runs across the front, with three additional 16-pane sashes under cambered wedge lintels on the first floor. The eaves cornice is bracketed, and the house has end stacks and a hipped roof.

Inside, the house retains several original features, including a cut-string staircase with scrolled tread-ends, turned balusters, and a wreathed, moulded handrail. The rooms on either side of the entrance hall, as well as the hall itself, feature fluted cornices with roundels. The datestone on the rear wing reads: J.S. 1829.
