Ganton Hall

The manor house was purchased by John Legard in 1586, at which time it was described as "new builded, the walls of chalk-stone and covered with slate".

[1][2][3][4] The house is built of red brick on a chamfered plinth, with stone dressings, quoins, a narrow floor band, a moulded eaves band, and slate roofs with shaped gables.

The southeast front has five bays, a recessed centre flanked by two-storey canted bay window, and gabled dormers.

The northwest entrance front has five irregular bays, and contains a porch with coupled Doric columns, an entablature, and a plain parapet.

Inside, there is fine coving, a grand wooden staircase, and marble fireplaces, while the laundry has its original stove and drying shelves.
