Description

Blackford Hall is an 18th-century house located on the west side of Brickle Road in Stoke Holy Cross. It is constructed of brick, which was formerly colourwashed, and features plain tile roofs. The west front has two storeys and is divided into three bays. There is a central gabled porch added in the 20th century. On either side of the porch, there are timber three-light casement windows set under segmental arches. Above these, two similar windows are positioned under the eaves. The house has a gabled roof and two chimneys on the rear roof slope, one of which is obscured by a two-storey gabled extension added in the 19th century.
