Description

The Old Hall is a house dated 1753, built on an older core with later additions. It features carstone with some brick and dressed limestone, and a pantile roof. The structure consists of several builds: a central two-bay section dated 1753, an older single bay to the left with a 19th-century forward wing, and a three-bay section to the right, all rising two storeys. The three-bay range to the right is constructed of galletted carstone rubble and has a dentil cornice with 17th-century brick dressings and gable parapets. The symmetrical facade includes a central doorway with a fanlight featuring glazing bars, brick jambs that were rebuilt, and a six-panelled door that was replaced after a fire around 1970. The recessed sashes have glazing bars and consist of 4 x 4 panes with flat arches. There are stacks on the rear wall with rebuilt shafts. The right return may have a raised gable with brick tumbling-in, and a ground floor sash similar to the front.

To the left, there are two bays with a datestone from 1753 that are set back and have a lower roof line, pantiles, and some galletted carstone. This section has a sash with glazing bars in the ground floor center left, a small inserted sash to the right, and two sashes with glazing bars on the first floor. The left bay has a higher roof and features a forward wing with a polygonal two-storeyed porch at the angle. The 19th-century forward wing is a single bay, made of irregular carstone rubble with brick dressings, a sawtooth brick cornice, and a pantiled hipped roof. It has recessed sashes with glazing bars on both the ground and first floors of the front and return. The porch is an addition with a flat roof and parapet, a semi-circular headed doorway with a fanlight, a sash with glazing bars above, and small openings with glazing bars on either side. The rear has a continuous lean-to covered with pantiles.

Inside, there are two large tie beams on the ground floor of the part dated 1753. Additionally, attached to the left front angle of the forward wing is a brick and carstone ha-ha, which includes a short length of wrought iron railings with a ramped rail, narrow bars, and a curved gate.
