More Hall

More Hall is a house dating to the late 17th century with additions from the mid-19th century. The original 17th-century section is built of deeply coursed, squared gritstone with a stone slate roof. A later, 5-bay section was added in the 19th century, constructed of finely tooled ashlar gritstone with stone slate to the front and Welsh slate to the rear. The 19th-century part features a pedimented central bay that projects forward and to the rear, with a twin roof over bays 1 and 2, and a single roof and outshut to bays 4 and 5. To the right of the 19th-century section is a lower, gabled 17th-century bay, two storeys in height, comprising five bays plus a single bay. The old 17th-century range has a plinth and quoins. It features a 3-light double-chamfered mullion window on each floor, and a blind square opening to the gable, incorporating a ledge and dripstone. The gable has shaped kneelers, chamfered copings and a tall apex finial. A renewed ashlar end stack is positioned to the right. The 19th-century section has sash windows with glazing bars throughout. A part-glazed door in bay 2 has leaded lights with painted roundels, and an open wood porch. A French window is located in bay 4. Tripartite sash windows are present in bays 1 and 5. A central canted bay-window is surmounted by a decorative cast iron balustrade, and includes a glazed balcony door. A first floor sill band links the sashes of all outer bays. The pediment is plain and topped by a tall apex finial. On the right return of the 17th-century range, a door is set within a chamfered quoined surround.
