Description

Bickmarsh Hall is a large house that dates from the 16th, 17th, and 19th centuries. The building features a low 16th-century timber-framed center, flanked by a very tall early 17th-century banded blue lias stone block to the east and a later 19th-century blue lias stone block to the west. The roofs are covered with plain tiles.

The eastern block has three and a half storeys, gabled to the north and south, with 19th-century bargeboards. It includes a large outside stack on the east side with three renewed diagonal shafts, as well as an internal east side stack with paired brick shafts that rise between two stone dormer gables. There is another large triple stack on the west side. The stone mullioned windows have hoodmoulds; the east side features two 2-light windows in the attic dormer gables, two 3-light windows on the second floor, a 2-light window to the left of the main stack on the first floor, and 2-light, 3-light, and 4-light windows to the right. The ground floor has a panelled door with a rectangular fanlight that has intersecting glazing bars, paired 18th-century sash windows under a 17th-century hoodmould, and a 20-pane window, also under a hoodmould.

The south gable end has a lower barn range built against it, but the original 3-light window on the second floor and a 2-light attic window remain visible. The north gable end is similar, featuring a 4-light window on the first floor and a ground floor door. On the west side at the rear, there are two paired 2-light windows on the ground floor, a 3-light window on the first floor, and a single light window with a shallow arched head.

There is a range running west, with a blue lias stone ground floor and an exposed timber-framed first floor on the north front. The heavy square framing has brick infill, and there is a small original exposed section on the north front. A small original wood 2-light window is located in the east corner, along with renewed 2-light and 3-light wood windows on the first floor. The ground floor features renewed leaded windows. The 19th-century west end is two-storey with an attic, gabled to the north and south, and has a central gable on the west front. This section includes stone mullion and transom windows, along with a projecting two-storey gabled porch on the north side and red brick paired chimney stacks.

In the west wing, there is an early 17th-century stone fireplace that was moved from Charletts in Cleeve Prior when it was demolished.
