Hindlip Hall, Grade II* listed house in Hindlip, England

The Greek Revival style building features multiple wings, expansive grounds, and a six-acre lake created in 1887 within the Worcestershire landscape.

The original structure, built before 1575, contained numerous priest holes designed by Nicholas Owen to protect Catholic clergy during the English Reformation period.

The hall witnessed the visit of Queen Elizabeth I in 1575 and later became connected to both the Babington Plot and Gunpowder Plot investigations.

The building currently serves as the headquarters for West Mercia Police and shares its grounds with Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service.

Hidden compartments within the original building remained undiscovered during multiple searches, successfully concealing priests for extended periods in the 16th century.
