Description
Barrington Hall is a manor house with origins dating back to the 17th century, which was altered and extended around 1920 by architects W. J. Kieffer and H. J. Fleming for Captain J. N. Bendyshe. The building is constructed of brick with a rendered finish and features a hipped tiled roof on the southeast range. It stands two storeys high with an attic. The main front on the southeast has a symmetrical facade framed by rusticated quoins, with two two-storey canted bays flanking a central bay that contains a doorway set in a round-headed arch. This doorway features an open pediment and a rusticated surround, with hung sash windows that include glazing bars.
On the west front, there is an Adam style colonnade supported by four columns. Inside, the hall boasts an open well staircase from the early 18th century, which has a closed string, iron-twist balusters, turned newels, and a moulded rail. An upper room features an early 18th-century fireplace with a pulvinated frieze, while the back staircase is also early 18th century, with a closed string and turned balusters. The Bendyshe family resided here from the 15th century until 1937.
