Description
Malvern Hall is a country house dating back to approximately 1690, originally built for Humphrey Greswold. It was significantly remodelled in 1784 by John Soane, and further altered in 1896 when the central block was reduced from three to two storeys, and the wings were narrowed from six to three and two windows wide. The house is constructed of cement-rendered walls with stone dressings, topped with a late 19th-century stone roof balustrade that conceals a hipped Welsh slate roof. Chamfered quoins are visible, and the facade features seven sash windows with glazing bars. A segmental bowed Ionic portico was added around 1811 and was painted by J.M.W. Turner. The interior retains Soane’s Hall and a symmetrically planned staircase. A large modern wing is attached to the right side of the building. A garden front terrace and steps are also present. Malvern Hall, along with the forecourt gatepiers, forms a group of historical significance.
