Description
Broadward Hall is a house dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of brick and features a hipped Welsh slate roof, with a brick ridge stack and an additional brick stack on the right side. The building has two storeys, an attic, and a cellar, and presents a five-window facade. The central feature is a Venetian window with a 10/6 sash set in a stucco case that includes a keyblock, frieze, and sill supported by consoles. This window is flanked by 6/6 sash windows beneath gauged brick flat arches, also with stucco keyblocks. A moulded stone eaves cornice and a pediment with a lunette window are located above, set within a semicircular rusticated stucco arch.
The central entrance consists of steps leading up to a glazed and panelled round-headed door, which is framed by a moulded architrave with springers and a keyblock, all within a stucco doorcase topped by a moulded pediment on pilasters. The flanking windows are again 6/6 sashes under gauged brick flat arches with stucco keyblocks.
On the right side of the building, there is a tier of blind openings beneath the returned eaves, along with a 20th-century gable dormer. The rear features a sandstone rubble wing with brick modillion eaves and two blocked openings above a 20th-century casement and door. The left side also has three 6/6 sashes, a returned eaves detail, a 20th-century gable dormer, and a central entrance with steps leading to glazed and panelled double doors beneath a moulded wood pediment hood on brackets, flanked by 6/6 sashes with gauged brick flat arches and stucco keyblocks.
The rear of the house is made of rubble and includes a buttress stack with a brick chimney, 19th-century timber-framing, and a roughcast jettied element. There are two 2-light casements and a 20th-century door with an earlier frame and overlight. An extension made of rubble and brick has a Welsh slate and corrugated-asbestos roof, a brick ridge stack, and a 20th-century infilled verandah.
Inside, the hall features a dog-leg staircase with a Chinese balustrade and moulded rail leading to the first floor, along with ceiling cornices, a marble fireplace, and six-panel doors.
