Norton Hall And Wall 6 Metres Long Attached To Left Hand End Of Front Elevation

Norton Hall is a farmhouse, which was once a manor house, likely built in the mid to late 16th century. It is constructed of red brick in English bond and features stepped buttresses and a parapet gable on the right side. The building has a splayed set-back at the first floor and another at the mid-height of the first storey. The left gable is plastered and shows evidence of a two-tier side-purlin roof. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has an axial chimney of red brick from the late 16th or early 17th century, although the shaft was mostly rebuilt in the 19th century.

The house has two storeys and three windows, primarily consisting of mid-19th century small-pane sash windows with cambered heads, along with a horizontally sliding small-pane casement on the right. There are some blocked original window openings with plain soldier arches above deep oak lintels, as well as a similar original blocked doorway to the right. A mid-20th century entrance porch, which is gabled and features a Venetian window, includes a six-panelled door in its side wall.

To the left of the house is a section of integral 16th-century walling, about 2 meters high, indicating that the building was originally fully integrated with the barn, which is now linked corner-to-corner with the house. Norton Hall is situated close to the north-east corner of the medieval moat of the earlier manor house. The interior has not been examined.
