Hauxley Hall (Hauxley)
(NU 27850310) Hauxley Hall. (1)
Grade II* Hauxley Hall
Empty -
Ashlar, three storeys at rear, two storeys at front. Dated M.K. 1724 on lintel of moulded doorway at rear. Rear elevation also has two double sashes on ground floor, three on first floor and three smaller double sashes on top floor, also two blocked windows on each floor to the left (the top ones being painted imitations). Low single storeyed service wing to right with hipped roof. All windows in moulded frames. South front has two-storeyed polygonal bay windows with parapets and three pointed arched windows on each floor, also pointed arched windows between the bays. Said to have interesting interior, with good entrance hall and staircase. See Pevsner. (2)
The house is now subdivided. The northern part of the house is dated to 1724 and a major late 18th century extension gave a new front facing east. It is roughly square in plan with an L-plan kitchen wing on the west. The south front is in Gothick style. Welsh slate roofs. The hall was probably remodelled by John Widdrington who held the estate between 1783 and 1797. (3)
