2 of the 4 fine trefoiled 2-light windows with pointed arches rising 2 storeys in the N wall of the hall. The S wall probably had the same number in parallel positions.

4 of the Perpendicular clerestory windows of the S aisle.

There are 4 large Perpendicular 4-light windows in each bay of the N wall and 5 Decorated windows with 3 lights each in the S wall (one of which is shown here). Rows of 14 smaller 3-light clerestory windows above. The W end of the hall contains a large central window and 2 smaller windows at the end of each aisle of 19th c. construction.

Exterior view of the 4-light windows on the ground floor of the great hall and a similar central 4-light window above. The larger upper window with 4 lights on 2 levels illuminated the high end of the hall.

The hall is lit by 3 high 2-light windows on the S wall (shown here), 2 high 2-light windows on the N wall and a larger window with 4 lights on 2 levels at the dais end.

The windows retain their late-15th c. heraldic glass with the arms of families intermarried with the Edgcumbes contained within diamond-shaped shields.
