Description
Haultwick Hall is a house with an attached gateway and walled garden, dating to the 17th century, incorporating an older crosswing at the north end, and with a parallel rear wing added in the 18th century. The house is timber-framed with roughcast rendering on a red brick plinth. It has steep roofs covered in old red tiles. The main part of the house is two storeys high, facing west, with a single-storey kitchen wing to the south and a two-storey crosswing set back on the north end. A parallel, shorter, two-storey rear wing is positioned in the angle. The house has three windows to each floor. The windows are mostly renewed flush casements with small panes, along with a late 18th-century six-panelled moulded door in a moulded doorcase with fluted pilasters, a rectangular fanlight and a moulded hood on bracket supports. A large external brick chimney with three diagonally set shafts serves the north end, while another external chimney serves the south part beyond the entrance. A central chimney is present in the kitchen wing. A pair of fine 18th-century red brick gatepiers, linked to the northwest corner of the house, have ovolo moulded arrises, a dentilled moulded brick cornice, and leaf-carved stone ball finials. The walled garden extends to the east of the house, enclosed by early 18th-century red brick walls with a moulded plinth, a dog-tooth course, sloped brick coping, and a central gateway on the east side.
