Description
Ettington Hall is a country house built in 1871 for William Bovington Gibbins. It is constructed of buff brick with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof with brick and ashlar valley and end stacks, most of which have 2 or 3 square or diagonal shafts. The house is designed in the Jacobean style and has an irregular plan.
The exterior consists of 2 storeys with an irregular 5-window range. It includes string courses, a top cornice, and a parapet, along with 4 coped gables topped with finials. The central gabled bay features a round-headed entrance with a fanlight above paired half-glazed doors, flanked by round-headed lights with enriched grilles. Above this, there is a 2-light mullioned window with a Caernarfon-arched date panel over the cornice.
The ends of the house have 2-storey gabled bay windows, with the right one projecting from a hipped roof. There are pierced parapets in front of the gables and end finials. The ground floor windows are 4-light with chamfered mullions and shaped heads, while the first-floor windows have stop-chamfered mullions. To the left of the centre, there are paired narrow windows, and to the right of the centre, a large 1:2:1-light transomed oriel window with a moulded and buttressed base, round-headed lights, and a pierced parapet. Small lights flank the buttress, and there is a small light above the gable. The windows are fitted with plate-glass sashes, except for the oriel, which has stained glass.
The right return of the house features a canted bay window on the ground floor and a lateral stack to the left of the gablet. The interior has not been inspected.
