Abney Hall, Victorian estate in Cheadle, England.

The mansion features ornate reception rooms with designs by A.N.N. Pugin and J.G. Crace, who also decorated the Houses of Parliament.

Built in 1847 on the site of Cheadle Grove Print Works, the property was purchased by James Watts in 1849 and underwent major extensions.

The halls and grounds provided inspiration for Agatha Christie, who wrote two novels during her stays at the residence of her brother-in-law.

The estate includes two free parking areas accessible from Manchester Road and Newlands Road, connected by level tarmac paths throughout the grounds.

The walled garden contains an advanced heating system with cavities that channeled warm air from basement furnaces through Gothic ventilation shafts.
