NETHERWITTON STANTON NZ 18 NW NZ 132896 10/150 Stanton Old Hall II Strong house, late C16 incorporating medieval fabric, refenestrated mid-C17 and south end remodelled c.1700. Rubble with re-used squared blocks, dressings, south end ashlar-faced; slate roof. West front 3 storeys, 4 bays. Rusticated quoins to right. C20 doorway in 2nd bay cuts C17 window opening; older door in 4th bay blocked with C20 window inserted. Other ground and 1st floor windows, formerly each of 4 lights, have C20 glazing set in C17 chamfered surrounds; some retain king mullions. Remains of blocked C16 openings on ground floor. 2nd floor shows bricked-up cross windows of c.1700 in first 2 bays, remainder of wall hidden by ivy. Coped left gable with old brick stack; stone cross wall with similar stack on line of 2nd bay; to right of this the block is roofless. South wall 2 bays; rusticated quoins, C20 glazing in former cross windows in architraves with scrolled pediments. Irregular east elevation with 2-light mullioned windows, mostly blocked, and remains of medieval fireplace with heavy corbels; projecting gabled stair turret near north end. C16 hollow-chamfered doorway on left of turret concealed by C20 single-storey addition which is not of interest.
Interior: stone winder stair in turret, several old fireplaces including one with large segmental chamfered arch, probably C16, and hall fireplace of c.1700. Unusual roof trusses each with one convex and one concave curved principal. Thicker walls and a change in masonry suggest that the north part of the main block was a 2-storey gabled structure heightened in the C16.
