| Description | Italianate red brick mansion with Portland stone dressings. Built in 1867 for the Rev Joseph Arkwright - grandson of the inventor. Two tall storeys, stone plinth, plat band string course with modillion brackets to flat eaves of hipped slate roof. Tall brick stacks with stone bands and bracketed cornice caps. Broad 3-bay entrance front with recessed centre. Tripartite stone pilastered windows, round headed lights to centre first floor with archivolts and keystones. Projecting stone entrance loggia, pilastered with glazed 3-bay arcade - central double door - balustraded parapet. Set back lower 2 storey service wing with paltband returned. The principal interior feature is the staircase hall rising through 2 storeys. Massive oak staircase with turned balusters and finaled newels. Ceiling above staircase has a brightly coloured decorative scheme on canvas, apparently painted by a member of the Arkwright family. On the flat of the ceiling are 4 panels with thinly draped and garlanded nudes representing the four seasons. Around the deep cove runs a Bacchanalia of nude figures, including a banquet scene. Below is a frieze of figures in C18 hunting costume, apparently incorporating portraits of Arkwright family members. On the ground floor, west side of the entrance hall, is the former ballroom. This was lined with mirrors above the dado, one of which survives. The ceiling here has a more restrained painted decoration with a garland of closely painted flowers and a ring of putti around the central rose. On the window bay's ceiling is a group of 3 nudes set against golden rays that appear rather unfinished by comparison with staircase ceiling. May have been executed later, possibly by another hand. Large ornate marble mantlepiece. Some of the oak doors in the house retain painted panels depicting children in various costumes. The interior decoration is the principal feature of this house. Entance hall and another ground floor room possibly have ceiling decoration concealed by over painting. | Facts about Description |
