Steeton Hall

Steeton Hall is a house, dating primarily to the early 16th century, with significant later alterations and additions, including a late 19th-century wing to the left. The main range is constructed of magnesian limestone ashlar, with sandstone ashlar dressings on the wing to the right. Roofing materials include Welsh slate, cement tiles, and corrugated iron. The building has a complex cross-shape.

The main range has three uneven storeys, exhibiting an irregular fenestration pattern. It features a chamfered plinth. The right side of the building at ground floor level has three windows with three lights and reticulated tracery to the heads. The first floor has three windows with trefoiled lights. A band runs along the second floor, above which are two pointed windows with a shaft between them, followed by a single lancet. A corbel table to the eaves is decorated with heraldic shields and masks. The remains of a central, multi-sided chimney rise from the eaves, supported by a lamb corbel. The gable end has a blocked round-arched entrance with a moulded archivolt, now filled with a trefoiled light. The first and second floors each have two lancets. A band adorns the gable. The left side of the building is obscured by the 19th-century wing. The rear features one- and two-light mullion windows set in chamfered surrounds.

To the right of the main range are two buildings with a gable end facing the front, separated by an entrance bay and a further single-storey, single-bay addition to the right. The first building is two-storeys and one bay, with a two-light mullion window to the ground floor within a double-chamfered surround. The first floor has a single light in a similar surround. The entrance bay is two-storeys and one bay, containing a long-panel entrance door under a basket arch with a moulded archivolt and an accompanying continuous hoodmould. The first floor has a blocked pointed-headed window with trefoil-headed niches to either side, above a band. It is finished with battlements. The right-hand building is two-storeys and two bays with two two-light mullion and transom windows within double-chamfered surrounds, all under a continuous hoodmould. The first floor has two square openings, that to the right being blocked and in a double-chamfered surround. At the rear is a three-storey, single-bay pigeon cot with two-light mullion and transom windows in chamfered surrounds. A later addition to the right houses 20th-century wooden double garage doors.

The left-hand range is two-storeys and two bays, with a chamfered plinth and an embattled porch over the end entrance. Throughout, the range features two- and three-light mullion and transom windows.

The interior remains uninspected, but is said to contain cinquefoil vaulting with ribs, and a late 14th-century piscina on the ground floor of the central range. Steeton Hall has undergone considerable alteration and addition over time. The centre range is believed to have originally housed a chapel. Parts of the right-hand range were reported to be in a state of disrepair at the time of the re-survey.
