Description
Woodleigh Hall is a large house, currently serving as a Health Authority training school, which was built in 1869, as indicated on the porch. The building has an L-shaped plan and consists of two storeys and attics, designed in an early Renaissance style. It features mullion-and-transom windows and shaped gables.
The elaborate centerpiece of the facade includes a porch supported by coupled Corinthian columns, an enriched entablature, and a parapet topped with finials. Above the porch, there is a first-floor window with two round-headed lights set within a round-headed frame, flanked by coupled tapered pilasters. The facade also has a square tower with two round-headed lights on each face, framed by pilaster-strips with faceted rustication, and is topped with coupled brackets, a bracketed cornice, and an open work parapet with finials.
On the right-hand side of the facade, there is a semicircular oriel window on the first floor. The left return wall features a loggia supported by Tuscan columns with faceted rustication. At the right end, a six-bay conservatory has a projecting three-bay bowed center, full-length windows set between narrow pillars with faceted rustication, and an entablature with finials over the pillars, topped with a wrought-iron framed roof that has scrolled decoration.
Inside, the hall is two storeys high and top-lit, featuring a timber staircase with an arcaded balustrade and a panelled dado, along with a first-floor arcade. The interior also boasts elaborate compartmented ceilings, one of which includes bas-relief inserts and painted decoration.
