Description

Ballingham Hall is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of finely coursed sandstone rubble, with sandstone ashlar and dressings, a Welsh slate roof, and brick stacks. The building has a T-plan layout, with the main range aligned north-west to south-east and a cross-wing at the north-west end. It features a cellar and two storeys.

The south-west elevation has a 1:3 window arrangement, with regular 2-light glazing bar casements, likely from the early 20th century, set under hood moulds. A moulded string course between the storeys rises to hood moulds over the ground floor windows. The gable front to the left has a moulded finial at the apex and a recessed oval panel beneath, also under a hood mould. A similar panel is found on the gable of the two-storey porch in the centre of the main range. The porch features a 2-centred moulded outer arch with moulded jambs and imposts, leading to a segmentally headed doorway with a studded plank door. There are 2-light mullioned openings to the cellar under the main range, and a mid-19th century lean-to on the right-hand side.

Inside, the ground floor has straight-cut chamfers on the ceiling beams and re-used 17th-century panelling, which is said to have come from the Church of St Dubrucius, forming a screen in the south-east ground floor room. The Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England noted an inscription reading "William Scudamore, 1602" on a four-centred head above a blocked door on the north-west return, although this inscription had disappeared by the time of the re-survey in September 1985.
