Description
New Creation Hall is a house that was formerly a rectory, completed in 1815 for Reverend H.B. Harrison. It is built of yellow brick in Flemish bond and features a hipped slate roof with brick internal stacks. The building has a double-depth plan and is two stories tall with a three-window range. The entrance front includes central part-glazed double-leaf doors set within a moulded stone surround and overlight, approached by three stone steps leading to a porch supported by fluted Greek Doric columns and unfluted pilasters flanking the door. The ground and first floors have 12-pane sash windows, all with gauged brick lintels. Additional architectural details include a chamfered stone plinth, a stone storey band, and deep bracketed eaves.
The right side elevation has four windows, while the garden front at the rear features a round-headed central door with double-leaf part-glazed doors, sidelights, and a fanlight, approached by nine stone steps. To the left side, there is a lower two-storey service wing with red brick on the entrance front wall, segmental-arched windows, and a dentilled brick cornice.
Inside, the vestibule has chequered stone paving, which continues into the staircase hall with black diamond insets. The stone cantilever open-well staircase has iron stick balusters and a ramped and wreathed mahogany handrail, illuminated by a domed skylight. The interior also features reeded doorcases and surrounds to windows, all of which have shutters to the reveals. A stone fireplace is located in the garden hall, and the garden door has panelled reveals, shutters, and a fanlight with coloured and painted glass displaying the family coat of arms and motto. The principal rooms contain marble chimneypieces, most of which are original, and there are brick-vaulted cellars. The hall was built at the expense of the Harrison family, who were the main landowners in the parish and patrons of the living.
