Description

Old Hall is a timber-framed house dating from the early 17th century, featuring plastered panels. It has a plain tile roof with gabled ends and stands two storeys high with attics, comprising three bays. The central bay includes a three-storeyed gabled porch with close-set studding and an arched doorway topped with a carved frieze. At the rear, there is a roughcast timber-frame wing, while to the south, there is an early 19th-century whitewashed brick wing that is two storeys tall and has two sash windows with glazing bars. The building also has later brick chimney stacks with circular shafts.
