Description
Hawley Park House, now partially divided into flats numbered 1-7, largely dates to the late 18th century, with significant alterations and additions around 1860 and a conservatory added in the mid-19th century. The central portion was refronted around 1860, and a south-east wing was added at that time. The building is cement rendered, with a large stone portico. It has a slate roof and cemented chimney stacks.
The main entrance front faces southwest, with two storeys and nine windows. It features a dentilled eaves cornice and a moulded band between the floors. A central bow on the first floor has a round leaded window with a Gibbs surround. A substantial stone portico on the ground floor has a triglyph frieze and Tuscan columns and pilasters. Behind the portico are two blank niches and a central stone doorcase with a cornice and eared architrave, leading to a four-panelled door. To each side of the central bow are mid-19th century sash windows with vertical glazing bars, horns, and moulded architraves. There are also two-storey canted bays with three windows each, featuring mid-19th century sashes with vertical glazing bars, moulded architraves, and cornices on brackets supporting the ground floor windows.
The northeast front has a central pediment with a blank oculus over three central windows, which project slightly, and ends in canted bays with three windows each. The central ground floor bays are doorways.
The south-east wing, added around 1860, is also cement rendered with a hipped slate roof, has an irregular roofline and three storeys, with mostly sash windows with vertical glazing bars. A late-20th-century bow has been inserted on the ground floor. The entrance door has a curved, open pedimented hood and pilasters, which may be reused elements from the earlier part of the house.
A good mid-19th century conservatory is attached to the northwest, featuring a southwest front with six round-headed wooden sashes, keystones, fanlights above, and a curved glazed roof. The rear of the conservatory is cement rendered, with similar windows to the main house.
The interior appears to have been extensively remodelled in the 19th century but retains a 19th-century staircase with turned balusters in an early 18th-century style, and a mid-19th century marble fireplace.
