Description
Preston Hall is a farmhouse likely built in the mid 19th century, featuring two storeys and Tudor detailing. The south elevation has three bays, with a prominently advanced and gabled centre bay that includes a panelled door with a fanlight and sidelights. There are hoodmoulded bipartite windows above the door and in the outer bays at the ground floor, with lying-pane glazing in sash windows. The skews run horizontally over skewputts, and there are end stacks with diamond flues. The roof is covered with graded slates, and the building has asymmetrical rear wings.
