Description

Stanmore Hall is a large farmhouse dating from the mid-18th century, with minor alterations from the mid-19th century. It is constructed of coursed dressed and squared sandstone, featuring tiled roofs with verge parapets and pitched copings, as well as side stacks. The building has two storeys and gable-lit attics, set on a chamfered plinth and adorned with moulded strings at each floor level.

The garden front displays three even gables and a three-window layout arranged in tiers of 3-, 5-, and 5-light chamfered mullioned openings. The entrance, located to the right of the central gable, breaks the string course and misaligns the central window with those above. It features a chamfered reveal and a Tudor arch above a boarded door. The yard front is similar to the garden front, but the first-floor windows consist of four lights only, while the ground floor has windows of 2, 3, and 2 lights that do not align with those above. A mid-19th century projecting gable of single storey obscures part of the left-hand gable, and there is a heavy lintel with a Tudor arch over a boarded door that corresponds to the one on the garden front.

The side elevations are characterized by massive stacks that transition to brick shafts at the eaves level, separating two ranges of blind two-light chamfered mullion windows. Inside, the layout is a through passage, but there are no remaining inner side walls. The staircase, which exits from the hall, features a heavy moulded handrail and splat balusters shaped like a two-blade propeller. There is also a spiral stair leading to the attic, and the interior includes chamfered beams with run-out stops throughout, although most fireplaces are from the 20th century.
