Full Description
The Old Hall at Barholm is thought to be of 16th/17th century in date, with 19th century modernisation and additions. The building was restored in 1963. It is a two storey building constructed of rubble and ashlar, with stone slates. To the south-east are the remains of a moat (see PRN 35818). {1}
The Old Hall is to the south-west of the church. The exterior presents a slightly more sophisticated example than usual of the small late 17th century manor house. The building is L- shaped, with pairs of moulded stone chimney stacks on the gable-ends. The east front, with a protruding chimneybreast and a similar protrusion on the opposite wing, capped by a timber finial, may have been a stair block. Internal evidence indicates that the left range was a 15th century open hall. There are two four-centred arched fireplaces dating from the 1600s.
