Numbers 1, 1A, 2, 3 And 4 Le Hall Place Plus Attached Forecourt Walls And Gatepiers

Numbers 1, 1A, 2, 3, and 4 Le Hall Place, together with their attached forecourt walls and gatepiers, is a manor house dating probably to the 14th and 15th centuries, with significant enlargement and remodelling in the late 17th century. Further alterations occurred around 1803 and 1870, and the building was subdivided in the mid-20th century. The gatepiers are late 17th century in style.

The house is constructed of marlstone ashlar with some limestone ashlar dressings, featuring Stonesfield-slate and Welsh-slate roofs and ashlar stacks. It has an H-plan, expanded to a double-depth plan. The symmetrical front has seven windows, with wide, gabled wings that display 6-light mullioned windows on the ground floor, pairs of stone cross windows on the first floor, and 3-light mullioned gable windows. The recessed central section features large stone cross windows and a gabled porch with a 4-centre arched doorway, recessed spandrels, and a marlstone ashlar label. The windows are primarily from around 1870, with limestone ashlar dressings and sheet glazing. The roof has three tall, stone-gabled dormers dating from around 1803, each with 2-light stone-mullioned windows. A large multiple stack to the right of the central range suggests an earlier, steeper roofline. The right return wall, facing the road, has similar mullioned windows from the 19th century.

The rear range includes two asymmetrically placed gables with 2-light 17th-century mullioned windows, though other areas have large 19th-century cross windows. Two small 2-light windows may be partially 17th century. The left side of the house features a flat-roofed central infill section, while the gable of the rear range retains a small, early wood-framed window. Inside, a wide 17th-century dogleg staircase has heavy turned balusters and carved ball finials. A first-floor room from the early 18th century exhibits bolection panelling, matching architraves, and a fireplace surround. A small, 14th-century stone vault incorporates wave mouldings. Numerous rooms contain 17th and 18th-century panelling, along with a noted 14th-century doorway with ballflower ornament and a plainer arched doorway.

Limestone-coped marlstone ashlar forecourt walls extend around three sides, standing approximately 2.5 metres high on the right and reduced to around 1.3 metres on the other two sides. A wide axial gateway is present, alongside narrower blocked gateways near the outer ends of the side walls. Tall ashlar gatepiers, pilastered on three sides, rise from moulded pedestals; limestone entablatures with pulvinated friezes break round the pilasters and support ball finials on tall moulded bases.
