Kepwick Hall With Attached Service Wing And Coach House

Kepwick Hall is a country house with an attached service wing and coach house, dating from 1873, with additions made in 1888 and alterations around 1930. It was designed by Goodacre in the Neo-Jacobean style. The house is constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings, under slate roofs with coped gables, kneelers, and tall, moulded stacks. A chamfered plinth, first-floor band, eaves band, and coped parapet feature, along with chamfered cross mullioned windows throughout.

The south front has three bays, with a slightly projecting wing to the right featuring a three-light window and a similar window above. To the left is a large, projecting square bay window with a coped parapet and a four-light window. Above are two two-light windows. The east garden front presents ten irregular bays. The design incorporates two bays with two two-light windows on each floor, followed by a slightly projecting two-bay gable wing with three single-light windows and above are two similar windows; in the attic is a similar window. A single door leads to a staircase window above, followed by a single window on each floor, with a through eaves gabled dormer above. A projecting gabled wing features a three-light square bay window, a three-light window, and a two-light window above. The final three bays each have a two-light window to each floor, topped with a double and single dormer. The west entrance front has six bays, with a projecting gabled wing to the right and a projecting gabled porch with a chamfered, segment-headed doorway, a panelled door, and a glazed tripartite fanlight. Above the doorway is a three-light window, and in the gable is a coat of arms. To the left are two small fixed lights and above a large staircase window, followed by a square bay window with a four-light window and a two-light window above. A small gabled window sits above. A projecting gabled three-story wing has a single-story, 20th-century projecting porch with a hipped roof, a glazed door, and a small plain sash window. Above are a two-light window and a similar window above. To the north of the main house lies a three-story service wing behind a courtyard wall. The coach house is situated around a small courtyard, approached through a large round archway with a hood mould and keystone on the south, and features two upper three-light windows.

The interior entrance hall features full-height panelling installed around 1930, in a Neo-Baroque style with Ionic pilasters. The dining room has half-height panelling in a 17th-century style, with a built-in sideboard and a fireplace with an overmantle constructed from pieces of original 17th-century furniture. A single, return wooden staircase is built in the Neo-Jacobean style. The drawing room contains very fine, mid-18th-century panelling that was re-used from a house previously owned by the Earl of Derby.
