Description

Shatton Hall is a farmhouse that has been converted into a private house. It likely dates from the mid-17th century, with an extension that is inscribed and dated 1701, reading "BENJAMIN CASS," and a further addition from the 19th century. The building features roughcast walls beneath a graduated greenslate roof, which has a right coped gable and kneelers, along with cement rendered chimney stacks.

The structure is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a two-bay extension on the right under a common roof and a left two-bay extension that is partly under the same roof. A 20th-century door is set within an 18th-century painted stone architrave that has a cement hoodmould above it. The windows are sash style, set in 17th-century chamfered surrounds, and are topped with cement hoodmoulds. There are small oval fire windows on both floors. The 18th-century extension features ground-floor sash windows in painted stone architraves, with the left window likely having been a doorway that also had an inscription above it, both under cement hoodmoulds. The upper-floor sash windows are framed in large 19th-century painted stone surrounds. The 19th-century extension includes a canted bay window and sash windows with plain reveals and painted stone surrounds.

Inside, the hall has beamed ceilings and slated floors. There is a 20th-century firebeam and a 17th-century inscribed moulded stone fireplace that was sourced from a farm in the Caldbeck area.
