Description

The Old Hall is a house dating from the mid-17th century. It is built of coursed rubble stone, some of which was once colourwashed, with stone dressings and Welsh slate to the front roof, Collyweston slate to the rear and side roofs. It has stone ridge stacks and a cross-wing plan. The front elevation has two-and-a-half storeys and features four three-light stone mullion windows with hood moulds. Above, on the second floor, are similar two-light windows in each gable, and two two-light leaded-casement dormers in the centre. The ground floor includes a four-light mullion window, a sashed rectangular bay, a doorway with a part-glazed door and moulded stone frame incorporating a cushion frieze, a three-light mullion window, and a one-over-one sash window. Further two- and three-light stone mullion windows are present at the rear. A single-storey range of outhouses projects from the rear, one of which was formerly a brewhouse and contains an inglenook. Internally, the hall features a moulded stone fireplace with a four-centred arch. There is a 17th-century oak newel staircase, an 18th-century staircase with turned balusters, and 17th- and 18th-century panelling.
