Description

Langton Hall is a country house, dating back to the 18th century and with significant additions from around 1840, now used as a school. The north wing has a datestone indicating 1738. A further school building was added in the 20th century.

The north wing is constructed of hammer-dressed limestone with a Westmorland slate roof on its right-hand side, and hammer-dressed sandstone with a pantile roof on its left. The main section of this wing, to the right, features five bays, while a slightly set-back wing, likely originally a stable, has three bays. The right-hand part of the wing is two storeys high with three first-floor windows, although two bays are obscured by a 20th-century addition. A 6-panel door is situated to the left, alongside a blocked elliptical carriage arch containing a 6-panel door and fixed window. To the right is a 6-panel door under a cambered brick arch, with a fixed window to the left, and a dated 4-fielded-panel door with overlight to the right; the keystone reads "T. N. 1738." The first floor has 2-light Yorkshire sash windows and fixed windows. The building features a stepped eaves course, shaped kneelers, banded stone end stacks, and brick ridge stacks. The left wing is two storeys high with three first-floor windows. It has a double door beneath a fanlight, flanked by fixed windows, within blocked doorways with flat brick arches. The first floor of this section is a later addition, incorporating 2-light Yorkshire sashes of varying sizes. There is gable coping and a shaped kneeler to the left.

The south wing is rendered sandstone to the main house and white brick to the service wing, both with Westmorland slate roofs. The main house section is a five-bay hallway-entry house on the right, and a five-bay service wing to the left. The main house is two storeys high and has five first-floor windows, with the first bay set back. A glazed porch, supported by paired square-section pilasters, contains a 6-panel door with overlight, flanked by fixed lights. Sashes with glazing bars are set within moulded stone architraves throughout. A moulded cornice runs along the top, and a hipped roof covers the structure, with stacks rising through the pitch. The service wing is two storeys high and has five bays, with sashes with glazing bars beneath stone lintels; one sash is located within a blocked doorway on the right. The left end is obscured by a 20th-century school building at ground-floor level. The first floor of the service wing has 9-pane unequal sashes and ridge stacks.

Inside the main house, a fine wrought-iron openwork staircase has a ramped handrail.
