Description
Langford Hall is a house, possibly dating back to the 17th century or earlier, with a brick facade dating to around 1700 and 1748. It has a hipped roof covered in red plain tiles with three gabled dormers and three red brick chimney stacks. The house is two storeys high with attics and has a symmetrical brick facade, with the three central bays projecting forward. It is arranged in an L-shape and features a modillioned eaves cornice. The front has a 2:3:1 window arrangement of small-paned vertically sliding sash windows, each with a gauged brick arch above. A fine central doorway features columns of Tuscan order, a frieze with triglyphs and metopes, a dentilled and moulded flat canopy, and reveal panels. The door is made of two panels, with glazing bars to the top lights. The east face of the house, which adjoins the road, has six windows with diamond leaded cross-transoms, some retaining their original hinges.
Inside, features include a panelled dado to the entrance hall, a four-panelled door with a semi-circular light above, a moulded surround, a frieze, and a canopy, all leading to a dogleg staircase with a moulded handrail, turned balusters and a panelled newel. Wall panelling and moulded architraves are present on four-panelled doors. Original servants bells are still intact. The hall was once the home of Lord Byron. To the southwest, there are remains of a moat.
