Description
Old Hall is a house built in 1718, with additions from the 18th and 19th centuries. It features red brick in Flemish bond with ashlar quoins and dressings, topped by a hipped plain tile roof and brick ridge stacks. The main house is oriented north-south and faces east, with rear extension wings aligned east-west. It has two storeys and an attic, characterized by a moulded plinth, rusticated quoins of varying lengths, and a cyma recta moulded eaves cornice.
The façade consists of five bays with 18-pane glazing bar sash windows that have aprons, moulded sills, sash boxes, and gauged brick heads with raised keystones. There are three attic dormers with hipped roofs. The central entrance features a half-glazed door surrounded by a panelled and bolection moulded surround, topped with a raised key and a broken semi-circular pediment on console brackets. This pediment is flanked by two heraldic shields and contains a third shield.
On the south front, the main house has a two-bay section to the right with slightly irregular fenestration, including glazing bar sashes with segmental heads and a stair window to the left. The left side features a two-storey 18th-century rear wing. The north front has a two-bay section to the left with 8-pane sashes in the left bay, 12-pane sashes on the first floor to the right, and a casement on the ground floor to the right, all with segmental heads. The rear wing, dated H.M.C. 1881, is two storeys high with three bays and casements with segmental heads, along with two half-glazed doors.
Inside, the two front rooms are adorned with early 18th-century wooden wall panelling. The early 18th-century staircase has been relocated and features turned balusters.
