Wardley Hall, Medieval manor house in Wardley, England.

The Grade I listed building features timber-framed construction topped with slate roofing, situated within a partially preserved moated estate near Manchester.

Built around 1500 by Thurstan Tyldesley during King Edward VI's reign, the structure stands on foundations dating back to 1300.

The Catholic Diocese of Salford received Wardley Hall as a gift in 1930, transforming it into the official residence of the Roman Catholic Bishop.

The hall contains educational facilities and meeting spaces for retreats, located six miles west of Manchester in a wooded area of Worsley.

A preserved human skull, believed to belong to St Ambrose Barlow, rests in a niche at the top of the main staircase.
