Description

Black Swan Hall is a house dating from the 16th century, which was altered and extended in the mid-16th century. It features a timber-framed structure that is rendered, topped with a plain tiled roof. Originally designed with a continuous jettied lobby entry plan, it includes a rear wing. The current entrance is located on the right side of the building, which has a two-storey and garret bargeboarded gable on the left and a hipped roof on the right. Each floor has three wooden casements with moulded surrounds and bracketed cills. The central entrance is a panelled door set in a moulded surround.

The left side of the house, which was the original entrance front, has two storeys and a plinth with a continuous jetty. The roof here is hipped with a gablet on the left side and features a moulded stack cluster towards the centre left. There are three wooden casements on the first floor and five on the ground floor, all with bracketed cills. The central left casement is in a projecting press that is underbuilt to the jetty. Historically, the house served as the Black Swan alehouse, and remnants of the brewhouse and cider press are still present from the 20th century.
