Hall, Bishop's Tawton, English country house in Bishop's Tawton, England
Hall Bishop's Tawton stands on a south-facing slope overlooking the River Taw, encompassing 2,500 acres of land near Barnstaple in Devon.
The estate appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 as part of the Bishop of Exeter's holdings before passing to Simon de Hall through his legal service.
The neo-Jacobean mansion incorporates medieval woodwork from Barnstaple's Old Guildhall in its private chapel, built during the 1880s at Herner crossroads.
The Grade II listed house includes state rooms, historic yards, ancillary buildings, and walled gardens, with wheelchair access and parking facilities.
The Chichester family has maintained continuous ownership of the estate since the 14th century through a marriage between Thomasine de Hall and Richard Chichester.
