Hallaton Manor

Hallaton Manor is a country house built around 1845, constructed from finely coursed banded ironstone rubble with limestone ashlar dressings and a roof made of Swithland and Welsh slate. The house is designed in a picturesque medieval style and has two storeys. The entrance front features three bays with a central four-storey tower above the entrance. The porch is canted and embattled, with a two-centred arch doorway that has a hood mould and corbel heads, along with shields in the spandrels. The tower is adorned with angle buttresses that form pinnacles and has mullioned and transomed windows on each floor. It is topped with an embattled parapet that includes a central gable displaying a shield and emblem, and there is an octagonal staircase turret in one corner.

The outer bays feature mullioned and transomed windows with two and three lights, and there is an additional lower bay that is recessed to the left. The end gables are coped and topped with small octagonal pinnacles decorated with crowns, and the facade has an embattled parapet that extends across both the entrance and garden fronts.

The garden front consists of five bays and is slightly asymmetrical, with outer gables that project slightly. The left gable features a full-height canted bay window with an embattled parapet and mullioned and transomed lights. The central bays have two-light mullioned and transomed windows on each floor to the left, while the right side has a squared and embattled ground floor bay window with four mullioned and transomed lights. Above this, there is a three-light mullioned and transomed window flanked by ornamental slits. The right gable has a three-light mullioned and transomed ground floor window and a two-light oriel window above that is corbelled out, along with three-light mullioned and transomed windows in the far right bay. All windows are fitted with drop-ended hood moulds that feature shields and other decorative label stops.

Recessed to the right is a mid-19th century conservatory, which is a massive curved glass structure that does not differentiate between the roof and walls, resting on an ironstone plinth with a rear brick wall. Adjacent to this is a length of garden wall made of coursed ironstone rubble with limestone ashlar copings.
