Description
Graham Hall Cottages, originally five almshouses, are now two dwellings and a village hall. They date from the late 17th century and have undergone 20th-century alterations and extensions. The building is constructed from coursed rubble stone with a stone flag roof and brick stacks. It has an H-plan layout, with the left cross wing truncated. The structure is one and a half storeys high, featuring a three-bay center flanked by one-storey, two-bay ranges. Each end has a one and a half storey, one-window gabled cross wing that projects outward. Most openings have been altered in the 20th century.
The central entrance consists of a boarded door flanked by two-light, small-pane casements, with a similar window in the gabled dormer above. All openings have painted timber lintels. The flanking ranges contain two-light casements with painted timber lintels, one in the left range and two in the right range. The left cross wing has a return wall with a boarded door to the right of a blocked doorway, which features a gabled door hood supported by renewed brackets. There is a 30-pane sash window with a stone sill and a painted keyed wedge lintel in the gable end, along with an owl-hole above. The right cross wing has two four-pane sashes with painted timber lintels in the return wall, and its gable end mirrors the left cross wing but features a four-pane sash. All gables have finials. The building has end stacks at the center and left, with right-of-center stacks in the flanking ranges.
Inside, the cottages feature three-part collar trusses on corbels, similar to those found in Nunnington Hall, which are exposed in the center portion and the right flanking range. The right cross wing, now serving as the village hall, retains a plain Tudor-arched fireplace.
