Description
Paul's Hall is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, with additions and alterations from the 17th century and later. The rear wing is a remnant of the original red brick house, featuring a parapet verge, chamfered brick windows, and an octagonal red brick chimney stack on the rear wall. It also includes a catslide roofed stair turret and a gabled dormer to the left, with a plastered return. The front range is timber framed and plastered, topped with a hipped roof covered in red plain tiles. The house has two storeys and attics, with a three-window range of small paned vertically sliding sashes. There is a central open gabled porch with a 20th-century partially glazed door and red brick chimney stacks on both sides. This house was the home of Arthur Golding, known for his translations of Ovid's Metamorphoses and other classics, which were widely used by Shakespeare in his works.
