Description
Gratton Hall is a farmhouse dating from the mid-18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of red brick, featuring rusticated stone quoins, dressings, and a plinth, topped with a red tile roof and brick end stacks. The building has a two parallel-range plan and is two stories high, with a three-window front that has a central break, which may have originally had a pediment. The windows include arch-topped glazing bar sashes in moulded stone surrounds, enlarged 20th-century casements on the first floor, and a mid-19th-century bay window on the ground floor to the right. There is also a 20th-century replica bay window on the ground floor to the left, and a central entrance with a pediment, shaped corbels, and a keystone, leading to a part-glazed six-panel door.
Inside, there is a stair hall behind the front door, featuring a panelled segmental arch in front of a dog-leg stair that rises six flights to the attic. The stair has an open string with scrolls, turned balusters, and a handrail that is ramped at an angle and scrolled over the curtail step. A full-height stair window with four transoms is located behind the stair.
