The Hall dates to around 1800 and replaces a previous hall which burned down. It has two storeys and six bays with the centre two projecting slightly under a pediment bearing a coat of arms. The entrance takes the form of a triple archway with two Tuscan columns giving onto a recessed entrance with two doors with fanlights. The house is now divided into flats. To the right is a tall block added by the RAF as a Radar Control HQ in about 1940.
