Description
Thurning Hall is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with stucco details and interior features added around 1830. It is constructed of red brick with blue brick and stucco dressings, topped with slated roofs behind parapets. The building is three storeys high and has a rectangular plan, with projecting service wings to the north and west.
The gable front has five bays, featuring four ground floor sashes with glazing bars and ground level sills. In the centre, there are two-leaf French doors framed by a lugged architrave with a bolection frieze, characteristic of the mid-18th century. The first floor has five sashes with glazing bars and stucco architraves, with a pediment above the central window and a string course below, all dating to around 1830. The second floor also has five sashes with glazing bars, displaying mid-18th century details, flat rubbed brick arches with keystones, and a central window with moulded brick. The building features brick dentils and a parapet above with stone coping. The centre bay on the first and second floors is accented with blue brick banding from the mid-18th century.
The entrance front consists of three bays, with the ground floor showcasing raised stucco rustication. There is an additional single-storey entrance bay to the north, which includes an arched porch. The ground floor has three sashes with glazing bars, while the first floor has three sashes with stucco architraves above a string course, and the second floor features three more sashes, all with glazing bars.
Inside, the hall is centrally located and has a stone-flagged floor. The garden front includes a three-bay room with two yellow scagliola columns. The roof plan features a hipped front pile and three parallel roofs to the rear, indicating two construction phases from the mid-18th century and around 1830.
