Alfreton Hall, English country house and Grade II listed building in Alfreton, United Kingdom.
Alfreton Hall is an English country house from the 18th century, with architectural details that reflect that period. The main structure you see today was extended in 1855 with a design by Benjamin Wilson.
Rowland Morewood started building in 1724, creating a residence that became tied to the region's coal mining economy. The house was deeply rooted in the area's industrial heritage.
The residence carries the Morewood family name, reflecting their long presence and influence in the area. Visitors today can see how this household shaped the character of the surrounding community.
The estate sits just minutes from Junction 28 of the M1 Motorway, making it straightforward to reach by car. The grounds and buildings offer spaces for events, celebrations, and restaurant services.
Underground coal mining caused the ground to sink, leading to the demolition of most original structures in 1968. Only the 1855 extension survived, standing today as evidence of the region's difficult industrial past.
