Description

Boyle Hall, now divided into five flats, was originally built as a house in 1799, with a significant extension added in 1888. The original fabric is hammer-dressed stone with ashlar quoins, covered by a stone slate roof. The symmetrical front facade has three bays and a doorway with a shouldered architrave, entablature, and dentil cornice. All windows are set within raised plain stone surrounds, which get progressively smaller on each floor. An oval plaque set between the first- and second-floor windows of the central bay reads "John & Hannah Boyle Built this House in 1799." Moulded gutter brackets are present, and the roof is hipped with lateral stacks.

The rear extension features a tall, three-bay entrance facade, with a taller central bay projecting forward. This section contains a doorway with a carved surround, entablature, a cornice, and a stair window above, all adorned with cornices. A circular attic window has a keystone, and a coped gable rises to a stack. The right-hand return originally comprised three bays; the first two have blocked windows, while the third bay, partly rebuilt around 1888, has a tall stair window with impost blocks and a keystone, alongside a doorway with tie-stone jambs.

The addition attached to the rear of the original house projects forward and incorporates two bays with separate hipped roofs. One bay has a large tripartite sash window with consoles and a decorated cornice, and a further window above with arched lights and keystones. The second bay features windows with architraves on each floor. Gutter brackets are also visible, and a stack is set between the bays. The left-hand return of the extension has three bays with sash windows, each floor featuring a single-light and a two-light window, with further windows featuring architraves. Above, a corbel supports an oriel window with canted single lights on the first floor, and a gable rises above the eaves, displaying a plaque bearing the date 1888 surmounted by a spiked finial.

Inside, the original entrance hall retains a panelled plaster ceiling with a modillioned cornice. Later, in the 19th century, other ceilings were richly plastered.
