Description
Bradshaw Hall is a house built around 1620 that underwent significant restoration in the 1960s. It is constructed from coursed gritstone rubble with quoins and features gritstone dressings. The roof is made of stone slate, with stone coped gables and plain kneelers. There is a stone ridge stack and a large stone external stack located at the north-east corner. The building has two storeys plus attics and an irregular plan.
On the north elevation, the house has a double gabled design with irregular window openings. In the eastern bay, there is a centrally placed 2-light recessed and chamfered mullioned and transomed window with a moulded dripmould above. The mullions and transom were added in the 20th century. To the west, there is a recessed bay with single-storey porches on both sides, also from the 20th century. The porch on the west side features a 17th-century fluted frieze with two finials. Between the porches, there is a 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion and transomed window with a moulded dripmould. Above this, there are similar 4-light windows in the eastern bay and to the left of the western bay, along with a 2-light window to the right in the western bay. The gables include 2-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows, with the eastern one being original and the western one likely from the 19th century and larger. All windows have leaded lights. The other facades display a variety of mullioned or mullioned and transomed windows, most of which have been restored.
Inside, the dining room retains original panelling and there is a 17th-century oak staircase that ascends two storeys. The plasterwork ceiling at the first landing features a central Tudor rose set in a geometric cross design, along with a heavily moulded cornice and frieze inscribed with raised lettering that reads, "A MAN WITHOUT MERCY OF MERCY SHALL MISS BUT HE SHALL HAVE MERCY THAT MERCIFUL IS: LOVE GOD BUT NOT GOULD." Additionally, there are two large stone fireplaces with Tudor arches and early leaded lights in the north-east bedroom.
