Bank Hall, Manor house in Bretherton, England

Bank Hall features three stories of red brick construction with Dutch gables and a square central tower on the southern facade.

The Banastre family constructed this Jacobean mansion in 1608, replacing an older structure after their ancestors arrived from Normandy with William the Conqueror.

The Royal Engineers used the mansion as a control center during World War II before returning it to the Lilford family.

The Friends of Bank Hall organization started restoration work in 2017 with support from Heritage Trust and Lottery funding.

The 1832 renovations merged Jacobean and Georgian Gothic architectural elements, incorporating a marble floor entrance hall and ornate dining room.
