Description
Wellow Hall and adjoining stable range are a country house dating back to 1700, with significant remodelling in the mid-18th century and the early 20th century. The building is now divided into two separate properties. Constructed primarily of brick, some parts are rendered and colourwashed, with ashlar dressings. The roof is slate, with gables and a hipped section, and features six stacks rising from the ridge and one from the side wall. The building is arranged in an L-shape and has two storeys plus garrets, across five bays.
The west front incorporates a 19th-century wing with two projecting bays and seven casement windows. Above this, an oriel window and four further casements are visible. Above these, a gabled dormer and a flat-roofed dormer are present. A two-storey block with cogged eaves and two sash windows on each floor is to the right. The north wall displays a datestone inscribed "JGM 1700". A 20th-century gabled porch is situated in the return angle. To the right of this, a gable features a 19th-century square bay window and a garret casement above.
The 18th-century south front displays five glazing bar sashes on each floor. The 20th-century north front has a centrally positioned door flanked by three sashes to the left and two casements to the right. An iron pump with a domed cap stands outside. The east front showcases a canted, hipped two-story bay window with three sashes on each floor. To the right, a French window with an overlight is flanked by single sashes, followed by four further sashes, two of which are plain. Above this, six sashes are visible, again with two being plain. A casement to the garret sits above.
The stable block, situated to the north, was partly rebuilt around 1984. The central two-story carriage house has single-story wings extending to either side, encompassing three bays. The carriage house features elliptical-headed carriage doors with a blocked keystoned ashlar surround, flanked by keystoned oval blind openings. A Diocletian window with a projecting architrave is positioned above. A wing to the left lacks a roof and exhibits a blind oval opening flanked by single doors with segmental and elliptical heads. A Yorkshire sash with a segmental head is to the right of this, and a further door sits on the right wing alongside two 20th-century casements. The pedimented south gable has a single casement.
Inside, the central hall and a service room display exposed span beams, one of which features stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops. The hall has a partial 18th-century panelled dado. The morning room and drawing room have late-18th-century Adam style cornices, along with mid-19th-century Classical timber and black marble fireplaces. The kitchen features an Adam style cornice and a notable early-18th-century Classical ashlar fireplace with a panelled eared architrave, stepped frieze and curved brackets to the cornice, flanked by early-19th-century panelled doors. An 18th-century framed newel stair boasts a molded handrail, vase and stem balusters, and re-sited fielded panelling below. Original 18th-century two and six panel doors remain, alongside six 19th-century beaded panelled doors.
