Low Hall with forecourt wall, railing and two gates

Low Hall is a house with associated forecourt wall, railing, and gates, dating from the early 18th century with a main range added in the mid-18th century. Later alterations and additions occurred in the mid to late 19th century. The building is now used as a restaurant. It is constructed of coursed squared pink/grey gritstone, with a graduated stone slate roof.

The house comprises a low entrance bay to the left, dated 1701, and a main range added in 1750, with a former outbuilding extending to the left of the entrance bay. The main range is a two-storey, three-bay block with a chamfered plinth and rusticated quoins. The entrance bay is also two-storey, and features a four-panel door within a cyma-moulded surround. The lintel above the door is triangular-headed and bears the inscription “1701”, with a rope motif in the spandrels. The ground-floor windows of the entrance bay are recessed chamfered mullion windows of four lights, while those on the first floor have three lights. The former outbuilding, now part of the restaurant, has a 20th-century bow window and a long catslide roof.

The main range has former flat-faced mullion windows in stone architraves of five, three, and three lights to each floor; the ground-floor mullions have been renewed and the first-floor mullions are late 19th-century chamfered. A string course at first-floor level is interrupted by the lead fall pipe, bearing the date 1750. The building has a deep moulded eaves cornice, gable copings, and corniced stacks at each end and to the left of the centre. Rear windows have been blocked or altered in the 18th and 20th centuries, and a 20th-century extension is present.

On the left return, a two-light flat-faced mullion window is set within a projecting stone surround, illuminating the attic storey. A 19th-century porch on the right return, built against an adjoining wall, features paired Tuscan columns supporting an entablature with cornice and blocking course, and has 20th-century glazing. First and attic-storey windows mirror those on the left return.

The forecourt wall is low and ramped up to the left, adjoining the former outbuilding, with heavy round coping stones. The wrought-iron railings are supported by eight standards with flower-bud finials and bars with spearhead finials. A narrow gate is located to the left, opposite the 1701 entrance, in a similar style with dogbars. Double gates to the right have foliated finials. The ashlar piers to the double gates are chamfered in a style matching the late 19th-century windows of the main range.

The interior includes an 18th-century fireplace with a moulded surround on the first floor of the entrance bay; shutters to the main range (left and centre); and an entrance hall accessed from the porch, containing a 19th-century staircase.
