Moresby Hall, English country house in Parton, Great Britain.

Moresby Hall stands on elevated grounds adjacent to St Bridget's Church, featuring architectural elements from different periods including a stone spiral staircase.

The estate dates back to 1150 when it was established by the Morisceby family, who maintained connections with English royalty through multiple generations.

The Grade I listed status of Moresby Hall reflects its exceptional architectural significance and its role in preserving England's heritage buildings.

Located two miles north of Whitehaven and twelve miles southwest of Cockermouth, the hall is accessible via the A595 and A66-595 roads.

The graveyard of the adjacent St Bridget's Church contains remnants of a Roman fort known as Gabrosentum beneath its surface.
