Description
Little Salt Hall, built in 1936 by Kathleen Anne Veitch, is a two-storey villa with a butterfly plan, facing south. It features a piend roof, slate-capped battered buttresses, and a deep overhanging bell-cast roof. A circular stair tower is located on the entrance elevation to the north, and there is a former garage wing to the east, which is single-storey with an attic. The exterior is made of white-painted brick, accented with polished yellow sandstone ashlar around the principal door and slate cills. The eaves course and channelled detailing can be seen on the first-floor windows and the stair tower.
On the principal south elevation, there are buttresses flanking a segmental-arched opening at ground level, which is to the right of the center. This opening leads to a lobby with terracotta floor tiles and a deeply recessed door, with a single window above it. To the left, there are two broad windows, and to the right, there is one window on the ground floor. The first floor has four windows to the left and three to the right, with the former garage wing located on the outer right. The entrance elevation to the north has irregular fenestration, featuring a timber-boarded principal door set in a moulded stone architrave to the right of the central circular stair tower, which has three staged windows that follow the course of the stair. The former garage wing is on the outer left. The west elevation has a single window at ground level.
The villa predominantly has multi-pane glazing in replacement metal-framed windows, while the stair tower retains original Crittal windows. The roof is covered with grey slate, and there is an ashlar-coped, painted brick stack with circular terracotta cans. Cast-iron rainwater goods are also present.
Inside, the window ledges are finished with terracotta tiles. The flooring includes some herringbone-pattern parquet and Marbolith skirting. A broad, polished oak handrail runs along the curved enclosing wall of the stair, continuing down to the base at ground level and along the gallery on the first floor. The interior doors are made of oak veneer and feature original Art Deco brass door furniture. There are plain cast-iron radiators, and some bedrooms on the first floor have fitted cupboards with original door furniture.
