Description

Wyke Hall is a house, now divided into ten separate dwellings. It has a 17th-century core, but was largely rebuilt in the 19th century, with extensions added in 1913. The walls are a mix of rendered surfaces and ashlar stone, with a tiled roof. It features a free ‘Tudor’ style and has paired octagonal chimneys positioned irregularly around the building.

The house is a long, irregular range and two storeys high, with attics. The east front displays several 17th-century stone mullioned windows, likely reused from an earlier building. Two projecting 19th-century stone bay windows are topped with brattished cresting. Numerous doorways are irregularly placed, with the main entrance located between the two southern bays. It’s sheltered by a 19th-century ‘gothick’ porch featuring a pointed arch, an embattled parapet with corner finials, and a coat of arms above the entrance. The south facade has 19th-century mullioned and transomed windows with cinquefoiled cusping. Further extensions, dating to the 19th and 20th centuries, are located on the north side.

Although the interior was not inspected for this listing, records indicate that it contains 17th- and 18th-century fireplaces, panelling, and decorative features.
