Description

Brownber Hall is a large house, probably built in the early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed, squared rubble, with the main block dressed and the flanking wings rock-faced. The building features a deep, chamfered plinth and rusticated quoins. It has graduated slate roofs with overhanging eaves and hipped ends over the bays. The design is symmetrical, with two storeys and five bays arranged in a 1:3:1 pattern. The central porch is corniced and castellated, featuring a studded plank side door. All the original sash windows have glazing bars set in stone surrounds. The main block has stepped and corniced end chimneys, and there is a semicircular-headed stair window at the rear, adorned with interlaced glazing bars.
