Description
West Hall is a house located in Middleton Tyas, dating from around 1705, with later alterations in 1805 and 1905. The building is constructed of rubble with some brick dressings, part roughcast, and features a pantile roof. It has a T-shaped plan and is two storeys high, with a layout of five bays, two bays, and three bays. The original five-bay section has quoins on the left side. The central entrance features a six-panel door beneath a radial fanlight, surrounded by a 20th-century frame and topped with a lead-covered shell hood supported by brackets. To the left of the entrance is a sundial framed in bolection, inscribed with "MANEO NEMINE" (Nobody Endures).
The ground floor has sash windows with glazing bars set beneath brick flat arches, with 15 panes in the fourth and fifth bays. The next two bays, added around 1805, also have sash windows with glazing bars below brick flat arches. The final three bays, dating from 1905, are roughcast and feature sash windows with glazing bars, along with roof dormers in the ninth and tenth bays. The building has brick stepped eaves, shaped kneelers, and ashlar copings, with brick stacks at the ends and between the fifth and sixth, and eighth and ninth bays.
The left return of the rear wing has a round-arched ashlar doorcase with a leaved door of six fielded panels below a radial fanlight. There are irregular sash windows with glazing bars, including 18 panes on the first floor to the left. The right return of the rear wing features a central gabled bay. While most windows have been altered, some three-light side-sliding sashes and two canted bays on the ground floor to the right remain.
Inside, there is an early 18th-century staircase near the entrance, featuring turned balusters. To the right of the door is a hall with paired fluted Doric columns supporting a segmental arch and a fluted frieze. The dining room, located next to the hall and formerly a kitchen, has two-thirds of a tripartite fireplace. The sitting room, further to the right, features an Edwardian Classical cornice.
