Substantial building of sixteenth century origin, with the remains of an eighteenth century south elevation, the north (front) elevation was much overlaid with features in a nineteenth century Tudor style, including window dripmoulds and a porch and NW gable. By 1970s the building had declined structurally and total demolition was proposed, but the building was instead extensively renovated in 1975 by Alex Gordon and Partners, who retained ground floor of the rear eighteenth century facade (known from old photos) as single-storey screen wall. The Old Hall was the property of the Edmondes family; Dr Benjamin Malkin (1776-1842), traveller and social reformer, also lived here.
