Description

Newbiggin Hall is a manor house that has been converted into a farmhouse. It was likely built in the late 17th century, with alterations made in the 18th, early 19th, and 20th centuries for the Salvin family. The building is constructed from squared sandstone and features a pantile roof. It has a U-shaped plan and is two stories tall with a two-window front, flanked by two-storey-and-attic, one-window gabled crosswings.

The central front door is nail-studded and set in a quoined and chamfered opening. The main front windows are 8-pane sashes, while the gable end windows of the crosswings are 12-pane sashes. The left crosswing has 12-pane sashes on the ground floor and 16-pane sashes on the first floor. The right crosswing features a 12-pane sash on the ground floor and a tripartite window with a central sash on the first floor. All windows have stone sills and plain lintels, with coped gables and block kneelers. There are end stacks on the main roof and a ridge stack on the left crosswing.

At the rear, the building has a basement and two stories, with irregular openings. There is a 2-light, chamfered mullioned window to the left of an added terrace, and a similar window is said to survive behind the terrace. The left return has a shallow-pointed basement doorway in a chamfered, quoined opening at the left end, and another similar doorway, approached by steps, at the right end.

Inside, there is an open-string, dogleg staircase with column-on-vase balusters, a moulded, ramped-up handrail, and shaped tread ends. In the rear left room, there is a chimneypiece with a fretted frieze and a moulded shelf beneath a shaped sunk-panelled overmantel. The rear right room features a moulded cornice and raised-and-fielded panelling for the shutters and window recesses. The ground floor has chamfered joists throughout, and on the first floor, there is re-used 17th-century moulded square panelling.
