Description
Bicester Hall is a house that has been converted into offices, dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with flared headers and features a Welsh-slate roof with brick stacks. The building has a double-depth plan and consists of two sections, rising to three storeys.
The front facade has five windows, with the three bays on the left being the earlier part of the structure. The entrance is located to the right and features a four-panel door, a fanlight, and a renewed wooden doorcase with pilasters and a pedimented head. The windows throughout both sections have segmental arches and are fitted with sashes: the ground floor has four-pane sashes, while the upper floors include margin lights above. Brick stacks are positioned at either side of the building.
At the rear, there are additional sash windows, and the later section includes a Venetian window. Inside, the property features panelled doors and a quarter-turn staircase with stick balusters.
