Description

Eastwood Old Hall is a house dating from the mid-18th century. It is constructed of watershot masonry with ashlar quoins, and has a stone slate roof. The house is a double-pile building. It features double-chamfered mullioned windows throughout. The front elevation has an 8-light window with a king mullion on the ground floor, above which is a 9-light window with a king mullion. A slightly off-centre doorway has a shouldered architrave, pulvinated frieze, and deeply moulded triangular pediment with a sunken tympanum. Above the doorway is a window with a shouldered architrave, pulvinated frieze, cornice, and raised keystone. A 4-light window with similar detailing is above that. The building has a cornice and coped gables with moulded kneelers, and two stacks to the gable ends. An elliptical window is at eaves level on the return wall of the house.

Attached to the main house is a barn, set back from the main range. The barn’s return wall has a segmental arch on skewbacks, with composite jambs and a tie-stone. A keystone is inscribed 'TME 1767' for Thomas Manley Eastwood. A mistal doorway on the right has tie-stones and a chamfered surround. Above the arch, a former Venetian window has been broken through to create a pitching door. An elliptical ventilator is situated above it. A 4-light chamfered window (now solid) is under the eaves to the left, serving a former servants’ quarter. A three-storey return wall has chamfered mullioned windows, including a 4-light window to the ground floor inscribed 'DAIRY', a 5-light window to the first floor, and a 3-light window to the second floor. A columbarium is at the apex. Moulded copings are present.

The rear of the barn has a semi-circular arched doorway with tie-stones. The rear of the house, built into a hillside, includes a ground-floor entry, a blocked doorway with tie-stones, and a long 12-light chamfered mullioned window. This rear room may have been a shop connected with textile manufacture. Two stacks are to the gables.
