The Old Hall

The Old Hall is a farmhouse dating from the 16th century and later. It is constructed of brick, with parts rendered and mainly colourwashed, and features pantile roofs. The building has two storeys with an attic.

The north facade consists of five bays, primarily featuring 18th-century windows, which include three-light mullion and transom windows with leaded lights, metal casements, and some original fittings beneath segmental arches. There is one surviving late 17th-century two-light mullion and transom window. A slightly advanced gabled bay has a semicircular-headed window on the first floor from the 18th century. The central front door, located next to the advanced bay, is adorned with a fine early 18th-century bracketed hood that has a segmental pediment, carved consoles, and a tympanum. The south facade has a lower 18th-century service wing attached, along with a gabled 18th-century stair outshut that features a semicircular-headed window directly opposite the advanced bay to the north. There is also one sloping dormer.

The east gable end displays six blocked late 16th-century windows with moulded brick pediments. An external stack with a pair of octagonal shafts may be an addition, as it partially blocks the gable windows despite its bonded brickwork. There is a moulded brick pediment set into the stack at ground floor level, above a fine stucco panel depicting the arms of Elizabeth I, surrounded by a vine scroll. The stone hood mould features star label stops, and there is an off-centre axial stack with four similar octagonal shafts. Additionally, the east gable has an added 18th-century external stack.

Inside, on the first floor, there are stone-dressed, ovolo-moulded pairs of adjacent fireplaces with arched heads and decorative brackets supporting a single mantelpiece, along with evidence of a partition between them. The ground floor features stepped chamfer stops, while the first floor has ogee and nicked stops. A fine 18th-century staircase includes fluted newels, turned balusters, shaped tread-ends, and a wide handrail. An upstairs room has a plaster barrel vault. The 18th-century roof consists of staggered butt purlins and collars, and there is one 17th-century panelled stud partition in the roof, with part of a four-centred arched door head surviving. The oak panelling mentioned in previous listings appears to have been removed.
