Description
Old Hall is a cottage dating from around 1500, which was partly damaged in a fire in 1980 and subsequently rebuilt in 1981. The building is timber-framed and rendered, featuring a 20th-century plain tiled half-hipped roof, a brick plinth, and a rectangular ridge stack located to the right of the center. It has one storey and an attic, with an original open hall and a floored bay to the south, and possibly an additional 16th-century bay to the north.
On the east facade, there is a 20th-century three-light bay window and a two-light casement window, along with a gabled dormer window. The interior displays exposed timber framing and shows evidence of hall windows to the north and south. The rebuilt stack incorporates some reused bricks.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 52% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
