Daresbury Hall, Georgian country house in Daresbury, England
Daresbury Hall is a three-story Georgian country house featuring brown brick walls with stone trimmings and seven bays of sash windows. A slate roof with a central pediment crowns the symmetrical facade of this Grade II* listed building.
George Heron commissioned the mansion in 1759 and his family held the property until Samuel Beckett Chadwick purchased it in 1850. This change in ownership brought the estate into a new chapter of its history.
The house displays Georgian design principles that visitors can see in its balanced front and columned details. These features show how English country estates were built during that period.
The house is currently not open to the public and remains in poor condition with structural damage. You can view the architecture from the outside, but approach the site carefully for safety reasons.
An illegal operation was discovered in an annex building on the estate. The discovery shocked local people as such activities had gone unnoticed for some time.
