Description

Great Bentley Hall is a house that features a 17th-century rear range and an 18th-century front range, with later alterations and additions. The building is timber framed and faced with red brick, with a plastered return and rear wing. It has a red plain tiled roof and includes left and right red brick chimney stacks, along with parapet verges. The house stands two storeys high with attics and has three gabled dormers. There are symmetrically placed two-storey angled bays on both the right and left sides. The front has a three-window range of vertically sliding sashes set beneath gauged brick arches. The central entrance features a six-panelled door flanked by pilasters with capitals and bases, topped with a moulded flat canopy. Inside, the rear range showcases stop-chamfered bridging joists and exposed ceiling beams, as well as vertically boarded doors with original hinges.
