Description
Alwalton Hall is a house dating from the mid-19th century, built for the Fifth Earl Fitzwilliam. It incorporates an earlier 18th-century service range. The main part of the house is constructed of ashlar limestone with dressings, while the service ranges are of red brick, partially plastered. The roofs are covered in Welsh slate and are hipped.
The principal façade, facing northeast, features three bays, with the central bay projecting and topped by a pediment. A single-storey addition, with both square and semi-circular bay windows, extends to the southwest and southeast. To the right are the service ranges. The house has ashlar end and side stacks, and rear stacks. Notable external details include boarded eaves with paired shaped modillions, a plain ashlar band separating the floors, a plinth, and pilastered quoins. Windows have moulded stone architraves, projecting cornices, and stone window cills.
The pedimented entrance bay features a 20th-century glazed-panelled door flanked by two blind windows, above which are three first-floor windows containing twelve, sixteen, and twelve panes respectively. Single sixteen-paned sash windows are found in each flanking bay.
