Bank Hall ⁵³⁹⁴

Little is known about Bank Hall's gardens due to detrioration and neglect. However, there is information available about Bank Hall's house. Bank Hall is a two-and-a-half storey brick house, with roofs of Cumbrian slate. The Hall is located in former ornamental parkland. It has a north-facing entrance-front and south-facing garden-front. The earliest identifiable phase of the present building dates from the early-17th century. This phase is characterised by brick work in English garden-wall bond. The ground floor consists of a four-bay halls, with a parlour to the west. A wing containing two rooms is located to the east. Probably in the second quarter of the 17th century, a four-storey stair tower was added to the Hall. This retains its original open well staircase.

In 1832-33, the house was extensively remodelled. George Webster, a Kendal-based architect, remodelled the house in an early example of 19th-century Jacobean style. The main entrance porch, a drawing room wing, extensive service accommodation and the north wing were all added in this phase.
