Hinton Hall

Hinton Hall is a small country house built in 1749 for Richard Ward Offley, with later additions and alterations. The building features red brick construction and low-pitched slate hipped roofs. It has a central block of three bays flanked by two projecting gabled wings. The house is two storeys high and has a window arrangement of 2:3:2, with glazing bar sashes topped by gauged heads. The gables have overhanging verges with moulded wooden rails painted white to resemble pediments. A central stone colonnade and a Classical-style portico were added to the lower service range on the right around 1923. The interior has not been inspected but is reported to have been extensively damaged by fire in 1950. Re-used timbers in the cellar include a wall-plate from a house of close-studded construction.
