Description

The Old Hall, dating from the late 17th century, features 19th and 20th-century additions and alterations. It is constructed of pinkish-brown and pinkish-orange brick laid in Flemish bond, with ashlar bands, quoins, and window and door surrounds. The roof is covered with Welsh slate in a fish scale pattern. The building has a U-shaped plan, with a right wing added in the 19th century that extends to the rear, and a further 19th-century range at the left, ending under a catslide roof with 20th-century infill between.

The central section is two storeys high and has four bays, flanked by two-storey wings with attics and two bays. The entrance is located in the third bay, featuring 20th-century half-glazed double doors beneath a radial fanlight, all set within a pilastered surround with a keystone. The windows are primarily casements with plain surrounds, except for the first bay on the first floor, which has a cill and a flat arch made of gauged brick, set at a lower level. A plain band runs along the first floor, and there is a 19th-century four-course eaves band interrupted by the architraves of higher windows.

The wings have quoins and a brick and chamfered ashlar plinth. The windows are unequally-hung 4- and 3-pane sashes, except for the first floor on the left, which features casements. All windows are framed in eared architraves with straight tooling and moulded cills on corbels. A pulvinated frieze is present above the ground floor windows, and a moulded ashlar band runs along the first floor. The left wing has a pulvinated frieze over the first-floor windows and a moulded second-floor ashlar band that slightly projects over the windows, acting as a cornice. The eaves are plain, with a 19th-century wooden modillion eaves band extending across both wings and the centre. Each wing has a hipped roof that includes a roof dormer with a casement window.

Inside, most windows have shutters, and the ceilings have covered beams and plain cornices, though much of the interior has been renewed. The wall to the left extends approximately 14 metres and is made of 19th-century brick with ashlar dressings and coping. It contains an archway leading to a seating nook, featuring ashlar jambs and a traceried head, which was likely removed from the church of St Andrew during 19th-century restorations.
