Description

Low Hall is a farmhouse dating from the mid-to-late 17th century and the early-to-mid 18th century. It is constructed of pebbledashed rubble with stone slate and concrete interlocking tile roofs.

The north front features two first-floor windows in an 18th-century range added to one bay of a projecting 17th-century cross wing to the right. The pebbledashed facade displays quoins in both sections. The left range has a partly glazed door with a 17th-century quoined, chamfered ashlar surround with a triangular head; this surround appears to have been moved from an inner doorway in the cross wing's left wall. The windows have ashlar projecting sills and deep lintels: a four-pane sash window is on the ground floor to the left, with 20th-century 16-pane casements on the first floor. A shaped kneeler, ashlar coping, and an end stack are visible to the left. The cross wing has a three-light side-sliding sash window on the ground floor and a two-light casement window in the surround of a double-chamfered mullion window on the first floor. The gable has quarter-round kneelers, ashlar coping, a brick stack at the apex, and a concrete interlocking tile roof.

At the rear of the cross wing, a rubble wall sits on a boulder plinth. An external stack, stepped at the top, has blocked ashlar surrounds of single-light windows on both floors to its right. The left return of the cross wing has three-light double-chamfered mullion windows on each floor at the rear, with a hoodmould on the ground floor. The right return of the cross wing has quoins to the left and, on the first floor, a partly blocked three-light double-chamfered mullion window.

The interior features chamfered beams. In the kitchen, located at the rear of the cross wing, there is reportedly a large fireplace with an ashlar surround and a broken flat lintel, now hidden.
