Wycoller Hall, Historic manor house ruins in Wycoller, England

The walls of Wycoller Hall contain large mullioned windows and an empty doorframe where an ornate porch once stood in this Lancashire estate.

The Hartley family constructed Wycoller Hall in 1596, and the Cunliffe family later expanded it through marriage connections in the early 1600s.

Literary experts consider Wycoller Hall as the inspiration for Ferndean Manor in Charlotte Bronte's novel Jane Eyre, published in 1847.

Visitors can explore the ruins within Wycoller Country Park, with parking available on the road from Trawden and near Height Laithe Farm.

The grand fireplace from 1950 restoration work remains inside the ruins, where previous materials were taken for local construction after the estate's decline.

Location: Trawden Forest

Inception: 1596
