Description
Westhorpe Hall is a country house, now converted into flats, dating from the late 18th century with alterations made in the early 19th century. The building was further converted into flats in the late 20th century. It is constructed of stucco with stone dressings and features hipped slate roofs. The hall has a plinth and moulded, rebated eaves, along with five side wall stacks and two ridge stacks. Most windows are glazing bar sashes.
The eastern entrance front is irregular and two storeys high, featuring an off-centre hipped projection with a recessed Classical porch supported by two square piers and a moulded cornice. The entrance includes a moulded six-panel door with a fanlight and flanking lights, and above it is a single sash window. To the right, there is a 19th-century hipped two-storey addition with a canted corner and two stone cross-casements on each floor. To the left, there is a set-back bay with two sashes on each floor, followed by a short hipped wing that is two storeys plus a basement, featuring three mullioned casements and a single sash on each floor.
The north front is Gothic in style, two storeys high with a plinth and crenellated parapet. The projecting centre has a single Gothic casement on each floor, with shallow canted two-storey bay windows on either side, each containing a central French window flanked by single casements, and three similar casements above. The irregular west side includes a canted two-storey hipped wing with cross casements to the left, and to its right is a hipped single-storey billiard room. The three-storey south side has five windows and features a shallow-gabled Classical porch to the right. This building was the home of General Warrand, who was involved in the Indian Mutiny.
