Description

Sandon Hall is a large, somewhat rambling mansion built in 1852, designed by architect William Burn, and is in the Jacobean style. The building is faced with ashlar and features slate roofs and stone stacks, standing at two storeys tall. The impressive entrance facade on the north side consists of nine bays, with a central projecting porch bay that includes ogival angle pinnacles, a clock, a semi-circular headed doorway, and a porte-cochére. There are shaped gables on both the right and left sides, and a projecting one-storey bay on the left with a curved screen wall that connects to a conservatory added by Stevens and Robinson in 1864. Inside, the mansion maintains a similar style, featuring a pillared entrance hall with a monumental divided staircase and attractive ceilings in the state rooms.
