Tattenhall Hall

Tattenhall Hall is a country house standing to the south of the village of Tattenhall, Cheshire, England. The house is designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.[1]

The house was built in the early part of the 17th century, before 1622, for Richard Bostock.[1][2] Sir J Bradshaw of Chester owned the house by 1666 and it later became a farmhouse.[3]

The house was bought in 1856 by Robert Barbour who restored the house and commissioned Thomas Harrison to design gate piers and farm buildings.[2] In the early 20th century the owners were the Cooke family.[3] In 1994 the house, along with 4.5 acres (1.8 ha) of land, was bought by the Benfields and Jannie Hollins and Chris Evered.[4]
