(North Side)
Toseland Hall
II*
A fine example of an early C17 manor house. Square plan with
symmetrical multi-gabled facades. Two storeys with attics.
Local red brick and plain tiled roofs. C19 restoration possibly
included the rebuilding of the chimney stacks, though much of
the central stack is original, and the replacement of the
plastered architraves, string courses, and pilasters by a more
durable material.
South facing elevation. Three equal bays divided by pilasters
to height of first floor windows with three gables each
connected by a continuous parapet with moulded brick copings,
cut at the apex by short vertical brick bands which possibly
supported finials. Ground floor raised on deep plinth with a
projecting base. First floor, and attic floor, divided by
moulded string courses that continue around the heads of the
shallow, two storey, canted bay windows of each flanking bay,
and the central window above the entrance. All the windows are
mullioned and transomed and have metal casements with lattice
lights, and in each gable is a three light mullion window. The
closed entrance porch, approached by steps has pilastered quoins
and moulded cornice, a continuation of the string course, and a
four-centred arched opening. The roof, and those of the three
first floor windows, is hipped and covered with plain tiles.
The entrance doorway has stop-chamfered oak jambs and a square
head with the original door with nail-studded battens and
moulded styles. To the west of the porch is a two-light
mullioned and transomed window. The three stacks are
symmetrically positioned, the central chimney has six circular
shafts with moulded octagonal bases and modern embattled caps.
The moulded bricks of the shafts have geometric patterns. As
access to the building was refused the interior details are
summarised from the RCHM Huntingdonshire inventory. The
interior has been altered with later partitions and fireplaces
inserted. The staircase has turned balusters, square newel
posts with carved, shaped finials.
