Hoole Hall

Hoole Hall is a country house in Mickle Trafford built as a brick structure with stone dressings, Welsh slate roof, and square plan layout. The main building features an additional servants wing and now operates as a hotel.

The house began around 1760 as a small residence for Reverend John Baldwin, who lived there until 1793. After that period, the building was expanded and modified several times to reach its current form.

The house displays typical features of English country estates with rusticated corners and balanced facade elements that reflect 18th-century design principles. These architectural details remain visible today and shape the impression visitors get when entering the building.

The building now operates as a hotel where guests can stay and experience the interiors. The location is easily accessible and maintains its protected heritage status, meaning its exterior appearance is carefully preserved.

An elaborate cast iron conservatory was added after 1850 and showcases Victorian enthusiasm for glass structures and exotic plants. This rare architectural feature has survived to the present day and stands out distinctly from the original house style.
