Description

Heggatt Hall is a former manor house built in the 17th century, which was refaced and extended in 1841. The building is constructed of knapped flint with brick dressings and has plain tiled roofs. It has an 'L' shaped plan, consisting of two storeys and attics, along with an additional two-storey lean-to and a polygonal stair turret located within the internal angle. There is a single-storey hipped roof extension and a 20th-century sun room on the southwest side.

The entrance facade on the east is asymmetrical, featuring the gable end of the south wing to the left and three windows to the right. This includes a central two-and-a-half storey gabled porch with a brick pediment above the entrance doors, as well as first floor and attic windows. The ground floor gable wall has an oriel window with a battlemented parapet, and a terra cotta panel is positioned above it. There is also a window with a brick pediment in the gable.

The garden elevation to the south may conceal elements of the original 17th-century house, displaying three windows and an off-centre two-and-a-half storey gabled porch. The entrance to the porch features moulded brick reveals and a four-centred gauged brick arch, with brick pediments over the entrance and the first floor and attic windows. To the right of the porch, there are two canted bays with five-light windows and battlemented parapets.

On the principal facades, the ground floor windows generally have stone mullions and transoms with timber casements, while the first floor windows feature timber mullions with casements that include glazing bars. The building has flint plinths, brick string courses at first floor level, stepped gables with finials on brick kneelers, and gable stacks with polygonal shafts, bases, and caps on the west and north gables. There are 20th-century flat roofed dormers on the north and south slopes of the south wing, and an off-centre axial stack with four polygonal shafts with bases and caps in the south wing.

The interior includes a panelled dining room with an elaborate arcaded overmantle and discreet fluted pilasters. There is also a good staircase featuring two balusters on each tread. The overmantle bears the arms of George Warde of Brooke from 1663.
