Description
Aisthorpe Hall is a small country house dating from the late 17th century, with alterations and additions made in 1821 and the late 19th century. The building is constructed of ashlar and coursed limestone rubble, featuring ashlar dressings, and has a hipped slate roof with lead dressings. The rear range also has a slate roof but includes stone coped gables, and there are two yellow brick wall stacks. The house is two storeys high with attics and cellars, and the front, added in 1821, has three bays in ashlar, with an additional bay from the late 19th century on the left.
A central rendered gabled porch from the 19th century covers a panelled door with a traceried fanlight and stone surround. To the left of the porch is a plain sash window, while to the right is a later 19th-century tripartite window. Above these are two plain sashes and another later 19th-century tripartite window, which are enlargements of the original 1821 openings. The later 19th-century bay, made of coursed limestone rubble with ashlar quoins, features single tripartite windows on each floor.
At the rear, the date 1821 is displayed at the apex of a raised gable above a range from the late 17th century. Inside, the house retains elliptical arches with moulded wooden architraves and archivolts, as well as some panelling from 1821. A grand cantilevered staircase with imitation splat balusters and the drawing room, which features a white marble fireplace, plastered panelled walls, and a moulded ceiling, are from the late 19th century. The rear range includes stop-chamfered beams typical of the late 17th century, and the extensive cellars beneath the front range reflect the layout of the earlier house.
