Preston Patrick Hall

House. It likely dates from the late 14th century, with the upper part of the East wing remodelled and windows inserted in the Hall block during the 15th or early 16th century. The Hall block was heightened and an upper floor added, probably in the late 17th century, with later alterations and additions to the rear. The construction is of slobbered rubble walls with sandstone quoins, topped by a graduated greenslate roof with stone ridge and copings.

The house is arranged as a hall with cross-wings. The front elevation is two storeys high and five bays wide, in a 1:3:1 arrangement. A top-glazed panelled door is positioned off-centre, with remnants of the tracery from an earlier window above, sheltered by a gabled stone-slated porch with renewed barge boards. There are two sashes with glazing bars to the left, one to the right, and three later sashes above. The left wing features a traceried window on the first floor, while the right wing has a 20th-century door with a traceried head leading to an opening, accessed by stone steps. Both traceried openings have hoodmoulds and head stops. A small lean-to with a slate roof is attached to the front of the left wing. Further traceried windows are visible at the rear, including a small single-light window that appears to have been protected and contains details of tracery lost on other windows due to weathering. Two ridge chimneys and two smaller, later chimneys are present at the rear.

The interior features deeply chamfered beams, a variety of fine stone fireplaces, door openings with Caernarvon arches over their heads, and two stone newel stairs. There is an 18th-century oak dog-leg stair with a closed string, square newels, turned balusters and moulded handrails, with later balusters to the landing, along with old oak floorboards and lintels. A five-bay king-post roof is present in the "Court Room" within the East wing. A detailed description, along with plans of the ground and first floors and photographs, can be found in the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments report, pages 195-196.
