Eathorpe Hall

Eathorpe Hall is a large red brick house dating to around the middle of the 18th century. It has a steeply pitched plain tile roof with hipped ends, except for a later gable on the north side. The roof features a brick modillion eaves cornice. The exterior has a stone plinth and a string band at first floor level. The facade is long and almost symmetrical, with a 10-bay arrangement. A five-bay section in the centre projects slightly, while a later bay to the north is slightly recessed. A circa 1808 square-headed porch is centrally positioned within the projecting five-bay section. The porch has outer brick piers with stone plinths and capitals, and rusticated inner stone piers, all supporting a stone entablature. The entrance door is panelled with six panels, and is topped by a rectangular fanlight, with rusticated stone jambs. There are two sash windows with glazing bars to either side of the porch, in the central projecting portion, with two sashes to the south wing and three to the north wing, one of which is narrower and a later insertion. All windows have rusticated lintels and cills. The recessed bay to the north has a single sash window with glazing bars. At first floor level, there are five sash windows to the projecting central section, and two to each of the flanking wings, all with glazing bars, lintels with keyblocks, and cills. Three dormers with slightly cambered roofs, each containing a 2-light 19th-century casement, are visible at the attic level of the central projecting block. Five brick chimney stacks rise from the roof. The ground floor interior shows late 19th-century features, including a fine entrance hall with three ornate plaster arches to the north, south, and east. A T-shaped staircase rises beneath the east arch to the back wall, then branches left and right against the back wall.
