Been trying to get in here for a looong time, got lucky today! Now been 'restored?' (though most of the lush fittings are gone). Closed in 2005. History-
The Hall is a grade two listed building, early 19th century with later additions. It is stone with a slated roof, and has stone and brick stacks. There are two and three storey sections, with sash windows and corbelled eaves. There is a canted bay on the west of the main block. The main block has a five-window front. The later wing to the left has a three-window front and was added in the early twentieth century by Captain Roland Addy. The upper floor included a music room with a sprung dance floor. Although this room is now carpeted and used as offices by the Brierley Social Services Home care team, you can still feel the spring in your step as you walk across it. The windows have moulded ashlar surrounds.
