Description
The Old Hall Restaurant is a house and cottages that date back to the 18th century, with later additions and alterations. The building features rendered rubble on a plinth, and the top storey, which has an eaves-band, was likely added later. It has graduated slate roofs with stone copings and kneelers, along with cast-iron gutters and rendered end chimneys on number 59.
Number 59 is symmetrical, standing three storeys tall with five bays. It has a central 19th-century Tudor porch that includes angle buttresses and a four-centred head to the chamfered door surround. On either side of the porch are corniced, mullioned, and transomed three-light windows, with mullioned and transomed two-light windows on each floor above.
The wing at the north end was originally two cottages, each with two low storeys and two bays. Each cottage features a sash window in a stone surround on each floor to the right of the door. The left-hand door now has a 20th-century plastic canopy above, added in 1984.
