Davenham Hall, Grade II* listed English country house in Davenham, England

The two-storey country house features a symmetrical entrance with six bays, Tuscan columns, and a slate roof atop stuccoed brick walls.

Built in the late 18th century for Thomas Ravenscroft, the hall replaced an existing timber-framed structure known as Davenham Lodge.

The interior displays Grecian plasterwork, black marble chimneypieces, and a central dome illuminating the staircase with fan-shaped decorations.

The building currently operates as a nursing home following its conversion in 1980, maintaining its architectural elements under Grade II* protection.

Four Doric columns form a screen on the first floor landing, while the drawing room contains a marble chimneypiece with dancing figures.
