Description

Broom Hall is a house, now used as offices, dating from around 1500, with significant alterations in the early 17th century and late 18th century, further changes in the late 19th century, and a restoration in 1988. It is constructed of timber framing with a stone underbuild, faced with coursed squared stone and ashlar, with ashlar dressings and roofs covered with stone slate and Welsh slate. The building has a T-shaped plan.

The south front, primarily from the 17th century, features a recessed range with four 9-pane sashes on the upper floor and a moulded pointed arched doorway with a 20th-century glazed door and overlight below. To the right of the doorway are three 12-pane sashes. A 16th-century wing with a facing gable has two 9-pane sashes above and two 12-pane sashes below. The right return has similar windows, all with concrete lintels. The left return has four square windows, and below them, three glazed doors with overlights, all from the 20th century. A projecting 17th-century gabled wing has lintel bands, a coped gable containing a large sundial, and three 9-pane sashes above and three 12-pane sashes below.

The late 18th-century east front has a plinth, a first-floor band, moulded eaves, and two coped rear wall stacks. It has a 7-window range of 12-pane sashes, with the central one featuring a moulded surround and a pseudo-balcony. A central 20th-century double door with sidelights and a large cast-iron fanlight is flanked by three windows. The left return has two 12-pane sashes on each floor, while the right return has two blank openings on each floor.

The rear elevation has 20th-century windows and a projecting 16th-century close-studded gable with coved eaves and a four-light square oriel window. Below the oriel is a four-light window with wooden mullions and a concrete lintel. A large shouldered stone side wall stack is located on the right return. To the left of the gable is a single bay projection with quoins, a doorway with overlight and window above, and a quoined surround.

Internally, the 16th-century wing retains jowled posts and four king post trusses with single purlins, wind braces, arched collar beams, and a single stud partition wall with rendered infill. A simply moulded stone fireplace is present. The room below features a segment-headed chamfered stone fireplace, chamfered joists, and span beams. In the main part of the house, a late 18th-century open-well dogleg wooden staircase has turned balusters and a ramped scrolled handrail.
