Brocton Hall, English country house in Brocton, England.
Brocton Hall is a two-story Grade II listed country house set in the Staffordshire countryside, built with architectural elements from 1760. The building now serves as a golf club headquarters, housing practice facilities and membership amenities on its grounds.
William Chetwynd built Brocton Hall in 1760, demolishing the earlier manor house on the site. The estate remained in family hands until 1923, when ownership passed to new proprietors.
The building holds memories of the Chetwynd family, with portraits of Sir George and Hannah Chetwynd painted by William Owen around 1815. These artworks reflect the lives of those who shaped this place over generations.
The building is now a golf club headquarters and may have limited visitor access depending on club policies, so it is worth checking ahead. Being set in a rural location, it is best reached by car.
A plumbing leak caused a fire in 1939 that destroyed the upper floor, reducing the building from three stories to two. This accident permanently altered the structure we see today.
