Description
Blyborough Hall is a country house dating from the early 18th century, with later additions in the mid-19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of thickly rendered red brick and features slate roofs with stone coped gables. The south range has two dormer windows with raking heads and plain sashes, while the west front has three similar dormers. The house is L-shaped with a plinth running around its perimeter.
The west front has six bays, with a slightly projecting 19th-century porch on the right that includes a plain fanlight and a six-panel door to the left, accompanied by a small round-headed plain sash to the right. To the left, there are two plain sashes and two glazing bar sashes beyond. Above, there are six glazing bar sashes, each with eight large panes. The south end of the south range features a large 19th-century tripartite rectangular bay window with a plain sash flanked by narrow plain sashes divided by pilasters, with a single plain sash above. The east front of the south range has two plain sashes on the left and long French windows on the right, with three plain sashes above. The south front of the east range has three plain sashes, with three more above.
At the rear, there are low offices from the late 19th and 20th centuries, as well as a 20th-century extension to the east. Inside, there is a fine later 18th-century hall featuring a mid-18th-century geometrical staircase with two balusters per tread—one spiralled and the other bulbous—along with decorated tread ends and a moulded handrail. The hall also boasts a delicately moulded plaster ceiling adorned with tendrils, oak leaves, and acorns, along with panelled upper walls and an ornate cornice featuring modillion, rosette, and egg and dart decoration. The doorcases and window frames also display egg and dart decoration. A lobby leads from the hall to the east, leading into a drawing room with similar ornate cornices, and an upper bedroom featuring a delicate ornate plaster ceiling. The original roofs of the house are mostly intact.
