View of the hall wing with the entrance staircase from the courtyard and windows. The original windows were enlarged when the hall was heightened as part of the renovations undertaken by Lord William Howard. Another, larger 3-light window was inserted in the panelling below the 8th window near the upper end, when the high end of the hall with its bay window was segmented to form the great chamber. The upper end has the traditional bay alcove, with a large, round-arched window. The window has 6 principal lights and 12 smaller lights above. The 2 small single-light windows at the lower level of the same wall were probably added later to brighten the interior.
