Description
Reasby Hall is a small country house that has been converted into a farmhouse. It dates from the 16th and 17th centuries, with significant alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of squared limestone rubble, with some 19th-century brick at the plinth, rendered gables, and ashlar dressings. It features a concrete tiled roof with three large rectangular brick stacks located in the valley. The house has parallel ranges and is two storeys high with attics, presenting a nine-bay front that includes a plinth, a first-floor band, and an eaves board.
An off-centre 20th-century door is flanked by two glazing bar sash windows on the right and six similar windows on the left. Near the centre of the façade is a recessed panel that displays the arms of the Sanderson family, inscribed with the initials "NES" and "RS" and dated "1708", all set within a rectangular moulded surround. The first floor features nine glazing bar sash windows. Two of the ground floor windows have ashlar reveals, indicating they are part of the 17th-century fenestration. The plinth stops immediately to the right of the door, indicating that two bays were added to the original structure.
On the rear wall, there is a chamfered rectangular window at a low level and a buttress, which provide evidence of a major 16th-century structure with a different plan. The left side of the building features an early 17th-century doorway with a four-centred arched head and a moulded stone surround. Inside, the building retains chamfered and moulded girders, some of which have shield-shaped stops. The dog-leg stairs have early 18th-century turned balusters and a moulded handrail, while the service stair retains 17th-century splat serpentine balusters at the top. The roof is constructed with pegged butt purlins and lacks a ridge piece, and it has carpenters' assembly marks on the principals. The spine wall of the parallel ranges does not divide the roof.
