Description

The staff quarters and outbuilding at Tissington Hall were built around 1905 by Arnold Mitchell. They are constructed from rubble limestone with gritstone dressings and feature plain tile roofs along with four stone stacks. The building includes two domed cupolas supported by wooden columns and topped with finials. It is a single-storey structure with attics, arranged around three sides of a courtyard.

On the east elevation, there are two broad, projecting gabled bays, with the single-storey section in between having no openings. The right-hand bay has two ground-floor 3-light recessed chamfer mullion windows, with a similar 4-light window above. The left-hand gable features a 2-light window and a canted bay window on the ground floor, along with a similar 4-light window above. The two west gables have roofs that extend on brackets over attic doorways.
