Wade's Hall [NAT]. <1>
Wades Hall, nearly 1 mile west-south-west of the church, is of mid 16th century date. It is of half-H-shaped plan, with the wings extending towards the north, and two staircases in the angle of the west wing. The western staircase is probably a 17th century or later addition. The east wing is of slightly later date than the main block, as it is a distinct timber-frame abutting against the original house. The original central chimney-stack has four attached octagonal shafts with moulded bases, modern at the top. Condition - Poor. <2>
