Description
Turton Hall is a house dating from the mid- to late 18th century. It is constructed of ashlar with a Welsh blue slate roof. The building is three storeys high and has a symmetrical five-bay facade. The facade features rusticated quoins, a plinth, and continuous bands to the first and second floors. A tall doorway is topped by an architrave, pulvinated frieze, and a casement-moulded cornice. Above the doorway, each floor has a window with an architrave and apron, a pulvinated frieze, and a cornice. The remaining bays have windows with simpler moulded architraves and projecting sills. The roof is hipped, with two end stacks and one ridge stack.
The rear of the house has five bays of windows with projecting, plain stone surrounds. The basement has double-chamfered windows that lack mullions, and may have originally been cross-windows. A doorway in the second bay is approached by a flight of three stone steps. The third bay features two-light windows. The left-hand return front has a central doorway with a weathered surround and cornice. Above the doorway, to each floor, are windows that break the continuous bands, featuring architraves and margin glazing.
The interior was not inspected at the time of resurvey, and the hall was unoccupied.
