Howell Hall

Howell Hall is a house dating from the early 18th century, significantly altered and refaced in the late 18th century and again in the 19th century. It is constructed of limestone ashlar with concrete tiled roofs and has two ashlar and one yellow brick ridge stacks. The building is arranged in an L-shape. The front facade is two storeys and comprises five bays, with a left-hand wing of three bays added in the early 19th century to serve as a service area. The main entrance features a recessed, two-panelled door with wood panelled reveals, a plain pilastered surround, and a narrow, leaded hood. There are three plain sash windows to the left and a single plain sash window to the right of the entrance; five similar windows are located on the first floor. All windows have splayed ashlar lintels with keystones. To the right of the front, a chamfered plinth is visible, along with three plain sash windows on each floor. The interior retains an early 18th-century dog leg staircase with knopped and turned balusters, three raised and fielded panelled doors (one featuring H and L hinges), and some original white marble fireplaces with plain pilasters. The remainder of the interior is from the early 19th century, with decorated plaster ceilings.
