Summary

This grand abode dates to around 1840. It is built from gault brick with slate roofs and has two storeys and a basement. The main façade of five bays has sash windows and jalousie shutters. The building features a moulded cornice with a parapet. The recessed side wing is in a similar style to this main block. A local informant states that an older hall, which burnt down in around 1660, stood in the grove to the southeast of the present hall but this has not been confirmed. Linear earthworks are visible in the grounds of the hall on aerial photographs but their archaeological significance is uncertain.

Vicar is stated to have said he believed an older hall, which burnt down in around 1660, stood in The Grove southeast of the present hall. However information is vague and thus site is not (yet) separately numbered.
