Description
Wood Dalling Hall is a country house that has been converted into a restaurant and public house. It dates from the late 16th century and is constructed of red brick with steeply-pitched plain tiled roofs. The building has two storeys and attics, with an L-shaped plan.
The main facade faces east and features three gables with polygonal angle-shafts and corbels, all topped with decorated terracotta finials. The ground and first floor windows are six-light with renewed hollow-chamfer mullions and transoms, set in chamfered reveals with moulded brick dripmoulds. The attic has 3-light wooden casements also with hollow-chamfer mullions and transoms. The gable parapets are roll-moulded, with a diagonally-set corbel at the peak of each gable, topped with an octagonal finial that has a moulded cap. Moulded brick string courses run at the floor levels.
There is a two-storey porch located off-centre to the north, detailed similarly to the main facade, featuring a 4-centred entrance arch of moulded brick with decorated spandrels beneath a square dripmould. The original entrance door and frame are located in the east wall. The north gable has a large partly-external stack with twin decorated terracotta shafts that have moulded caps and bases. The south gable contains three later wooden casements.
To the south-west, there is a large external stack, with the upper section rebuilt in the 20th century and featuring four octagonal shafts, flanked by a polygonal stair turret with an embattled parapet. A 3-light lower casement with leaded glazing is also present. The south wall of the rear range has an external stack with a corbelled and crow-stepped parapet, where four shafts have been rebuilt on original moulded bases.
An angle link-block features a stepped gable with a pinnacle base, and the attic dormer has crow-stepped gable moulded brick corbels with stuccoed octagonal finials. The west gable has been largely rebuilt in the 20th century, including a large external stack with four linked shafts. There are pantiled lean-tos in the angle, one of which has a castellated parapet. The north wall has 3, 4, and 5-light wooden mullioned windows, and the attic dormer features a crow-stepped gable, although the openings have been much altered. An attached coped red brick garden wall is located at the south-east corner.
