“The finest small manor house in the East Riding….quite perfect with an uncommonly handsome front” (Pevsner, The Buildings of England). The architectural merits of the hall are reflected in its grade II* listing, but what is not evident except upon inspection is the wonderful state of repair and restoration, carried out painstakingly by the present owners, with oak joinery including doors, cupboards and thresholds complementing the superb original oak panelling. All windows are limestone mullion styled with leaded light. Farrow & Ball, Laura Ashley and lime wash traditional paints have been used throughout.

The house stands south facing over farmland, and to the rear the farm buildings provide a sheltering courtyard in mellow brick and tile. Work is required to some buildings and there is planning permission for residential conversion of the big two-storey barn on the northern side.

GARDENS/OUTSIDE
The fully enclosed walled gardens to the front and sides of the Hall incorporate well stocked shrub and flower borders, lawns, three raised vegetable boxes and a soft fruit area. Fine gravel pathways around the Hall lead to the brick pillared gateway and a magnificent tulip tree. There is a brick store/shed with outside privy and a wood/coal shed with power  that is attached to the Hall and adjacent to the back door. The grassland extends to the north and west of the holding.

To the side and rear of the buildings is land sown to grass, totalling approx 2.8 acres (1.13ha). House and buildings approx 1.3 acres (0.52ha).
In all some 4.1 acres (1.65ha)

UNRESTORED BUILDINGS

Unrestored buildings include: scullery with brick range incorporating ovens, coppers and a cast iron range, timber ceiling with brick floor, two bricked up south facing windows and staircase to the first floor; full-height cellar below the scullery with power and lighting which houses the floor standing oil-fired boiler; loose box with dovecote above; loose box with granary above; stables, currently without a roof but with consent for re-instatement as part of the approved scheme for the threshing barn.
(NB the first bay of two storeys – scullery and cellar - have historic access to the Hall and could be incorporated as additional living accommodation, subject to consents)

RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY

The threshing barn (full height with double access doors) is a substantial brick-built barn with a total net internal floor area of 2475 sq ft . It faces the hall but is very separate and, with a sympathetic design, could retain its own privacy. The barn has full planning permission for a 4 bedroom domestic dwelling (see East Riding of Yorkshire Council planning reference 14/02532/PLF and 15/02734/VAR. tinyurl.com/oldhallbarns).  A cart shed attached to the side of the threshing barn is incorporated within the scheme for residential conversion.
