Description
Little Horkesley Hall is an 18th-century building located on Kings Road in Little Horkesley. The north front features gault brick and stone, designed in a rectangular plan with a prominent Giant Doric portico and a flat entablature at its center. The façade includes an anthemion frieze, dentils, and nine fluted columns, along with four pilasters against the wall. To the left of the center, there are double doors with glazed eight-pane tops and panelled bases. The west side has two blanked windows, three Regency sashes with three vertical parts on the first storey behind the portico, and one pair of modernized ten-pane casements. A string course at first floor level is mutuled and pegged, with window heads made of gauged gaults in straight arches. There are three pairs of matching windows on the ground storey to the west of the doors. An extension to the west has been demolished, but a stone dentil cornice runs around the parapet.
The east front of the house features a semi-circular bow window that is two storeys high, with three-part bowed sashes consisting of three panes over six panes. It has a patera on stucco cases and a dentilled cornice. The sashes on the left and right have three over four panes on the first storey and six over six panes on the ground storey, with a rusticated stone plinth and a mutuled string at the first floor.
