Building record MDR13670 - Morley Hall, Heanor Road, Morley

An early Victorian house, extended in c.1867. The house is built of red brick beneath a gabled slate roof with prominent ridge stacks. The garden elevation is two and a half storeys tall. There is a central gabled bay with bargeboards. This contains a single storey canted bay window. To either side are two tall window openings with squared lintels. To the left, the set back wing dates from the late nineteenth century. This was the home of Robert Sacheverell Sitwell (d.1891). This is an interesting example of an early Victorian small country house. (1)
