Barmston Old Hall is a historic building in Barmston, East Riding of Yorkshire, a village in England.
A manor house in Barmston was first recorded in 1297, and waterworks including a moat survive from this period. The earliest part of the current building is the left wing, which may be 16th century, while the bulk of the house was rebuilt in the late 17th century. In the mid-18th century, most of the house was demolished, and the remaining section became a farmhouse. In the 19th century, a new wing was added at the rear. The building was grade II* listed in 1952, while the waterworks and associated enclosures and field system are a listed monument.[1][2][3]
The house is built of pinkish-red brick, with cobbles, stone dressings, and a pantile roof. It consists of a min range with two storeys, a basement and attics, and a lower two-storey range to the left. The main range has a chamfered plinth, quoins, a shaped modillion eaves band, and a swept roof with stone copings, a ball finial, and tumbled-in brickwork on the left gable. On the front are two doorways with divided fanlight in panelled recesses. Most of the windows are mullioned and transomed.[1][4]
