Woolley Hall, Grade II* listed house in Woolley, England.
The sandstone H-shaped building features a slate roof, distinct wings, and balconies overlooking the entrance, with elaborate interior design elements throughout its halls.
Construction of Woolley Hall began in 1635 under Michael Wentworth after purchasing the estate for £6,000 from the Woodroffe family in 1559.
The property exhibits early Jacobean architectural elements, including a grand staircase crafted from Norway Oak designed by Thomas Shuttleworth in 1807.
The hall currently operates as a conference center and wedding venue under the management of Wakefield Council, offering various event spaces.
The initial estate owner, Sir William de Notton, served as Lord Chief Justice of Ireland before selling the property to Sir William Fyncheden in 1365.
