Description
Barton Hall is a building that originally served as a house and is now an autistic community. It dates from the mid-18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The structure has two storeys and attics, featuring an east garden front with seven windows. The exterior is made of stuccoed brick, adorned with flat pilasters, parapet gables, and early 19th-century parapets that have a moulded cornice. The roof is glazed with pantiles and includes segmental-headed casement dormers, along with rear chimneys made of red brick.
The ground floor has 19th-century sash windows, which have been replaced with 20th-century small-pane sashes, while the first floor retains 19th-century large panes. The entrance doorway, dating from the early 19th century, features a simple moulded architrave, fielded panelled reveals, and a recessed semi-circular fanlight with decorative glazing bars, leading to a 20th-century panelled door.
Inside, the entrance hall contains a staircase with a moulded handrail, likely from the 18th century, although the balustrading has been covered with 20th-century boarding. Several rooms feature dado panelling, along with other joinery and plaster cornices from the 18th and early 19th centuries.
