Details
AUGHTON ST MICHAEL'S ROAD SD 30 NE 7/23 Aughton Old Hall 11.10.68 II
House. C15, altered probably late C18 and restored mid C20. Brick and sandstone rubble with remains of timber frame. 2 storeys. East wall has one-bay cross-wing at left, of stone on the ground floor and brick above. The windows are C20 casments with glazing bars. Main range has exposed framing near junction with cross-wing. A doorhead with depressed pointed arch connects 2 wallposts, which are tenoned into a wallplate below the present eaves level. Immediately to the right of the 2nd post is a 3rd, also tenoned into the wallplate. To the right on the ground floor is a window. On the 1st floor are 2 windows, the left-hand one above the timber doorhead. The present doorway is to the right of the original one. Chimneys in line with original doorway and on gable of cross-wing. Interior: present stair to left of front door, divided from it by short timber-framed wall. Cross-wing has some exposed ceiling beams on ground floor, and a C17 segmental-arched stone fireplace built within the cross- passage. On the 1st floor part of a spere truss is visible, with a tie- beam interrupted by the posts, which are arch-braced to the central raised tie-beam. The timber wall visible on the ground floor is a part of the spere. An arched brace from the front post to the tie-beam has been removed, but part of a moulding remains on the post. Part of the rear post and arched brace is also visible. On the 1st floor part of the framing of the cross-wing is exposed where is abutts the hall range. The wall is separately framed in square panels with straight braces. Lack of weathering on the tie-beam of the hall truss, which has raking struts, suggests that there has always been a storeyed end to the hall.
