Bank Hall is currently unoccupied. It has deteriorated to a very poor reflection of it's former glory. The yew trees which flanked the drive to the front door and the stone lions that faithfully stood guard are all gone. The tall chimneys have become overgrown with ivy, which has now claimed more than half the building.
The majestic clock tower has lost its northerly elevation which has fallen into the stairwell below, crashing through the seventeenth-century oak staircase. Dry rot has penetrated the fabric of the building with sections of floor falling down and rain pouring through gaping holes in the roof.
