Description

Black Hall is a two-storey house with an attic, constructed from very roughly squared and coursed stone rubble, featuring brick window heads and a concrete tile roof. The front gable wall includes 20th-century casement windows and a pent porch. On the west wall, there are three 20th-century windows below and two above. The east wall, also made of stone rubble, has two blocked windows with 2-centred Gothic tracery; the northern window incorporates reused tracery and an original moulding made from Sutton limestone, which comes from a medieval quarry near Ogmore-by-Sea. There may have originally been a third window to the north. Between the two existing openings on the lower level, there is a blocked rectangular opening, also made of Sutton limestone. The rear of the house, which was not inspected during the resurvey, has a stuccoed gable end and a modern brick stack on the west slope of the roof. It seems unlikely that any medieval features remain, except possibly part of the south-east corner and the east wall.

Black Hall sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,080 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 86% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 22 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 8 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
