Hatley Park

Hatley Park is a country house with a core dating back to the 17th century, but it primarily features two main building phases from the early and mid-18th century. The house is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and has a hipped slate roof with a parapet topped by stone urns, along with a stone main cornice. The internal stacks are made of red brick and are rectangular in plan with capping. The layout consists of a single east-west range with mid-18th century extensions at both ends. The building has a cellar, two storeys, and an attic.

The north front, likely remodeled in the late 18th century, has a seven-bay central block that includes a pedimented and slightly projecting three-centre bay section. This front features rusticated quoins, a bulls-eye window in the tympanum, twelve-pane recessed hung sashes, and a central doorway with a pedimented Ionic portico. The symmetrical wings on either side each have three bays, with the central ground floor window in each wing being a Venetian window set in a round-headed arch with a fan surround.

The south front displays an irregular arrangement of windows that reflects the 17th-century core, also comprising seven bays with hung sashes in raised stucco surrounds. The symmetrical wings at the ends were widened in the late 18th century, with added projections. The ground floor infills are made of wood. The interior has undergone significant alterations, but some 18th-century chimney pieces have been added.

Historically, the house was rebuilt by Sir Robert Cotton after 1682 and before 1707, when it was depicted by Johannes Kip in "Britannia Illustrata." It was later extended by Margaret Cotton in the mid-18th century and acquired by Thomas Quintin in the late 18th century, who may have refaced the north front.
