Description
Hexgreave Hall is a small country house built in the mid-18th century, with extensions added around 1800 and a re-facing completed in the late 19th century. The building is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings, featuring chamfered ashlar quoins. It has two rendered stacks, an ashlar parapet, a cornice, and an ashlar plinth. The house stands two and a half storeys tall and has three bays, with the central bay slightly projecting.
The second floor has an ashlar sill band. The central entrance features a four-centred arched doorway that is accessed by two steps and includes a glazed double door with an overlight, flanked by narrow panels that are partially glazed. The doorway is surrounded by ashlar with moulded spandrels and an entablature. On either side of the entrance are single tripartite sash windows. Above these, there are three smaller sash windows, with the central one being the smallest. The windows throughout have eared ashlar surrounds, and each light is divided by a single ashlar mullion. The first-floor windows are accented with small ashlar blocks beneath each mullion and at the outer corners.
To the right and left of the main building, there are single-storey, single-bay wings built of early 19th-century red brick, featuring hipped slate roofs, dentil eaves, and ashlar plinths. Each wing has a single four-centred arched Gothick glazing bar casement, and there is a small glazing bar sash located above on the left side of the right wing.
