Huntroyde Hall, Country house in Simonstone, England
The H-shaped Huntroyde Hall features high ceilings, large windows, and a sandstone facade that reflects its 16th-century architectural origins.
The Starkie family acquired the estate through marriage in 1464 and constructed the initial building in 1576, with major Georgian-style renovations in the 19th century.
During the First World War, Edmund Arthur Le Gendre Starkie transformed the estate into a recovery hospital for wounded soldiers.
The estate, which once covered 6,500 acres, maintains substantial grounds suitable for walking and cycling activities in the Lancashire countryside.
The property includes one of northern England's longest Grade II listed Ha-Ha structures, a sunken wall that creates an invisible barrier between the garden and parkland.
