Description
Wychnor Hall is a country house with an early 18th-century core that was extensively remodelled in the early and mid-19th century. The exterior is rendered brickwork with stone dressings, topped by a low-pitched slate roof largely hidden behind a parapet. The house has central chimney stacks and an L-shaped plan.
The entrance front is divided into two parts, predominantly to the left, and is three stories high with a 2:3:2 arrangement of glazing bar sash windows, reduced to nine panes on the top floor. The outer bays slightly project and are flanked by low-relief quoins. A mid-19th century, single-story, flat-roofed Tetrastyle Tuscan portico, now with glazing between the columns and glazed doors, sits centrally. An early 19th-century wing is attached to the right, of similar height but two stories and three bays, with a wider-spaced rhythm and further set-back wing beyond.
The garden front mirrors the entrance front with a 2:3:2 window arrangement and a slight central recess, with a pedimented orangery attached to the west side.
