Ravenscroft Hall, Grade II listed mansion in Byley, England.
Ravenscroft Hall features yellow brick walls with stone details, an Ionic columned porch, and a three-storey Italianate bell tower in its northeast wing.
Built in 1837 for William T. Buchanan to replace a Jacobean house, the mansion received additional extensions in 1877 under the ownership of the Moss family.
The property includes a former ballroom with detailed decorative elements and a stone open-string staircase that reflects 19th-century English architectural traditions.
The mansion stands one mile north of Middlewich, east of the B5309 road, and requires special permissions for any modifications due to its protected status.
During World War II, the building operated as a First Aid Post until 1940, when it sustained damage from a bomb impact.
