Oddendale Hall (Eastern House In Settlement) With Adjoining Byre

Oddendale Hall is a house, likely dating from the late 17th century with early 18th-century additions, situated within a settlement. A date of 1677 is recorded on a lintel reused in the barn to the north, while 1726 appears on the threshing barn to the south. 19th-century additions and alterations were subsequently made. The house is constructed of coursed, squared rubble with quoins, with some portions pebble-dashed. It has a graduated slate roof. The front facade is characteristic of the 18th century, with a 17th-century wing behind. The house extends to the left with a rear wing, and a lower byre adjoins it on the right, added in the 19th century. A plank door is set within a 19th-century gabled porch with side benches. The ground floor includes a three-light window and a fire window to the right, a sash window to the left, and two further three-light windows above. These upper windows feature square-leaded glass in chamfered surrounds with flat stone mullions. A 19th-century bay has a sash window on the ground floor and two casements above. The byre has a plank door in a shouldered surround with a casement window on each floor to the left, and steps lead to a plank loft door in the return. Stone mid and end chimneys are present.
