Description

Frog Hall is a house dating from the early 15th century, with alterations made in the 16th and 17th centuries. It features a two-bay open hall with a jettied service cross-wing and a 17th-century cross-wing at the upper end. The entry is through a cross-passage. The hall is now 1½ storeys high with attics, while the wings are two storeys. The building is timber-framed, rendered, and has a clay plain-tiled roof with gabled casement dormers. There is an axial chimney in the hall range made of 16th-century red brick. The windows are 19th-century casements, and there is a panelled entrance door.

Inside, the hall has an open truss that is damaged, featuring a cambered tie-beam, massive arch-braces, and a crown-post that are now missing. The hall has polygonal hewn pilasters at the storey posts. The former crown-post roofs of the hall and service wing now have 16th-century clasped purlins. The cross-wing was extended to the rear in the 17th century. There is a 16th-century open fireplace in the hall with three square recesses above an oak lintel. The 17th-century upper end cross-wing has moulded first-floor joists that were reused from a 16th-century structure.
