Description
Strawberry Hall is a 17th-century house located in Magdalen Laver, extended in the 19th and 20th centuries. The house, divided into tenements, is timber-framed and has a roughcast rendered exterior with a roof of machine-made red clay tiles. It originally comprised four bays aligned north-south, facing west, with an internal chimney stack in the second bay from the north. External chimney stacks are positioned at each end of the original structure. Two similar wings extend westward from the north and south ends, creating a half-H shaped plan, each with a 19th or 20th-century internal chimney stack. A flat-roofed, single-storey extension was added to the south in the 20th century. The west elevation of the main house features four 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor and one glazed door. The first floor has two 20th-century casement windows and two additional windows set within gabled half-dormers. Inside, the stop-chamfered ceiling beams have run-out stops, and the exposed joists are unchamfered.
