Tattenhall Hall, Manor house in Tattenhall, England
Tattenhall Hall is a manor house in Tattenhall, England, featuring brick construction with sandstone details and an H-shaped floor plan. The five-bay entrance front displays gables of different heights and mullioned windows throughout.
The manor was built before 1622 for Richard Bostock and shifted by 1666 under Sir J Bradshaw of Chester's ownership from a noble residence to a farmhouse. This change reflected broader social transitions of the period.
The building demonstrates early brick construction techniques from Cheshire and preserves original Jacobean window seats and wall paneling from the 17th century. These crafted details reflect the building traditions of that era.
The property includes roughly 4.5 acres of land with restored gardens, featuring wild flower meadows and a pond. The garden design follows established landscaping principles and enhances the grounds overall.
Architect Thomas Harrison designed the gate piers and farm buildings in 1858, showing the property received significant attention into the 19th century. These additions came during a major restoration and modernization effort.
