Upton Cressett Hall

The Elizabethan manor house features an irregular floor plan with brick walls, large chimney stacks, and intricate wooden beams throughout the structure.

Between 1540 and 1580, the Cressett family constructed the manor, which Richard Cressett later modified by encasing the timber-framed building in brick.

The manor represents the architectural preferences and social status of England's influential families during the Elizabethan period through its design and layout.

Visitors need to verify opening times before arrival as the property maintains specific schedules for public access to the house and gardens.

Spanish chestnut trees planted in 1815 to mark the Battle of Waterloo stand in the grounds, with new saplings added for the battle's bicentenary.
