Walton Hall, Grade II listed country house in Walton, England
The estate encompasses a 26-acre lake surrounding the main building, which follows the Palladian architectural style constructed in 1767.
The property belonged to Ailric, an Anglo-Saxon chieftain mentioned in the Domesday Book, who negotiated the return of his estates after Norman invasions.
Charles Waterton transformed the estate into the first wildfowl and nature reserve in the world, establishing new standards for wildlife protection.
The property now operates as part of Waterton Park Hotel, offering accommodation and event spaces within its historical grounds.
A multi-faceted sundial from 1813 stands on the island behind the hall, indicating time across multiple international cities.
