Wallsworth Hall, English country house in Sandhurst, England
Wallsworth Hall is an English country house built with a rectangular base of red brick and limestone accents, featuring a U-shaped floor plan. The structure layers 18th-century construction with 19th-century extensions that expanded the original footprint.
Samuel Hayward built the house after 1740 as a wedding gift for his wife Catherine. The main front was added later, and major renovations transformed the structure in 1865.
The interior contains an 18th-century mahogany staircase with twisted balusters and decorative fireplaces that demonstrate the craftsmanship of Georgian architecture.
The building holds Grade II* listed status, which recognizes its exceptional architectural value and requires specific preservation guidelines for any work on the property. Visitors should be aware this is a private residence with limited public access.
The house features a distinctive off-center clock tower that was added during the 1865 renovations. This tower significantly altered the building's appearance and is often overlooked by visitors.
