Description

Toseland Hall is a fine early 17th-century manor house. It is a square building with symmetrical, multi-gabled facades, two storeys with attics. The house is built of local red brick with plain tiled roofs. A 19th-century restoration likely involved rebuilding the chimney stacks, although much of the central stack remains original, and replacing the original plaster architraves, string courses, and pilasters with more durable materials.

The south-facing elevation has three equal bays divided by pilasters that extend to the height of the first-floor windows, each bay capped with a gable connected by a continuous parapet with moulded brick copings, cut at the apex by short vertical brick bands, which may have supported finials. The ground floor sits on a deep plinth, and the first floor and attic are separated by moulded string courses. These string courses continue around the heads of the shallow, two-storey, canted bay windows in the flanking bays and above the central window over the entrance. All windows are mullioned and transomed, with metal casements containing lattice lights. Each gable features a three-light mullion window. The closed entrance porch, approached by steps, has pilastered quoins, a moulded cornice (a continuation of the string course), and a four-centred arched opening. The roofs of the porch and the three first-floor windows are hipped and covered with plain tiles. The entrance doorway has stop-chamfered oak jambs and a square head. The original door remains, featuring nail-studded battens and moulded styles. A two-light mullioned and transomed window is located to the west of the porch. The three symmetrical chimney stacks include a central stack with six circular shafts, moulded octagonal bases and modern embattled caps; the moulded bricks of the shafts display geometric patterns.

The interior has been altered with later partitions and fireplaces. The staircase has turned balusters, square newel posts with carved, shaped finials. Interior details are summarised from the Huntingdonshire inventory as access to the building was refused.
