Barrowby Old Hall

Barrowby Old Hall is a house dating back to approximately 1600, with significant remodelling in the early 19th century and brick additions in the mid-19th century. It incorporates medieval fragments, possibly from an earlier house on the site. The construction is of coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings, topped with Collyweston slate and concrete tile roofs. The building has three coped ashlar gable stacks, one external to the left gable. Key features include quoins, a wooden eaves board, and gutter brackets. The house has a roughly L-shaped layout.

The first-floor windows are primarily 9-pane sashes set in 4-centred arched recesses. The front facade, with four windows, has an irregular arrangement of openings. A single cusped lancet window with a moulded surround is located on the left, below which is a cusped 2-light window with a 4-centred arch. To the right of this is a large 16-pane sash with a 16th-century moulded surround and label mould. A 19th-century doorway with a 4-centred arch is situated to the right of that. Other windows are of the 19th century.

The right wing features two reset mask corbels above a 19th-century 3-light casement window. Below the corbels is a single cusped lancet in a coved, square-headed surround, alongside a large, late-20th-century window. The garden front, with seven windows, includes a slightly off-centre external shouldered ashlar stack, flanked to the left by four windows and to the right by three. Two windows on the left end have segmental heads. Below the stack, the right side is flanked by a tall 12-pane sash and a cusped 2-light window, while the left end features a 9-pane window. All these openings have 4-centred arched recesses. A moulded, pointed arched doorway with a hood mould is situated to the left, followed by three large, segment-headed 16-pane sashes. Attached to the left gable is a 19th-century lead water pump with a wooden case.

The interior entrance hall contains a 16th-century gable-headed doorway leading to the garden front, and an early 19th-century dogleg staircase with a winder and landing, featuring double stick balusters and a ramped, scrolled handrail. The central hall has a 4-centred arched doorway, full-height linenfold panelling, and moulded beams. It also includes a 4-centred arched fireplace with cable moulding. The room above is reportedly similar.
