Description
Red Hall is an early 17th-century mansion constructed of red brick, featuring three gables and three storeys. The building has stone quoins, dressings, stacks, and pinnacles on each gable. Its windows are rectangular, consisting of three and four lights with stone mullions. A moulded stringcourse runs along the heads of the ground and first-floor windows, as well as the porch windows, while the second storey windows have moulded heads. The roof is made of stone slate.
There is a later 17th-century projecting porch made of ashlar, which is rectangular and two storeys high. This porch includes a six-light mullioned window and a shaped parapet, with side windows on each storey. The ground floor features a porch supported by two Doric three-quarter columns on lozenge-paralleled bases, flanking a round-headed central arch with a moulded head. The entrance door is rectangular framed with a four-centred arch.
Inside, there is a very good early 17th-century staircase with turned balusters and tall newel finials. The mansion was purchased in the early 18th century by the Digby family and is currently undergoing restoration and conversion into a museum as of December 1969.
