Flagg Hall

Flagg Hall is a manor house that has been converted into a farmhouse. It dates from the 17th century, with some alterations made in the 19th century. The building is constructed of rendered stone and coursed limestone, featuring gritstone dressings and quoins. It has an ashlar porch and roofs that are partly covered with plain tiles and partly with stone slates. The house has large stone side wall stacks at the front and west, and a gable end stack to the north. The ridge has stone copings with moulded kneelers on the front and rear gables, and there are continuous moulded stringcourses around the building at both the ground and first floors.

The structure has three bays and stands three storeys tall, plus attics, with a double pile plan. The front elevation is double gabled and rendered, featuring a grand single-storey porch from the late 17th century, which has a balustrade. The central entrance has a semi-circular headed arch with a massive keystone and banded rustication, flanked by half arches. Above this is a moulded cornice and a balustrade with square corner and central pillars, along with moulded balusters that have loop decorations and a moulded handrail.

The original doorway below the porch has moulded jambs and imposts, with a large lintel featuring a central boss on a segmental arched base. There are two carved panels above the door, with the top panel displaying two florets and the lower one being curved. The door itself is an oak studded door, likely original. On either side of the porch, there are 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows, which were probably originally transomed but have been altered in the 19th century. Above these are two similar but shallower windows, also likely originally transomed. Centrally placed above the porch is a doorcase with a stepped, moulded architrave, leading to a 20th-century glazed door.

To the west, there is a carved coat of arms, with 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows with early iron casements on either side. Above these, in the gables, are single light recessed and chamfered windows with stringcourses above. The west elevation features two blocked mullioned and transomed windows, as well as a 4-light recessed and chamfered mullion window with a major mullion that was formerly transomed. Most of the original openings remain, although they no longer have their transoms. Inside, there is oak panelling in the dining room and an original dog-leg staircase with turned balusters, newel finials, and matching pendentives.
