Cranage Hall
Cranage Hall is a former country house in the village of Cranage, Cheshire, England. It was built in 1828–29 for Lawrence Armitstead, and designed by Lewis Wyatt.[1] In 1932 a parallel wing was added.[2] Since the hospital closed, it has been used as a hotel and conference centre owned and run by the Principal Hayley hotel group.[3] The building is constructed in red brick with blue brick diapering, and in yellow sandstone. It is roofed in slate.[4] The architectural style is Elizabethan.[1] The building is in two storeys plus a basement, and it has eight bays. The first and fourth bays are in stone; the others are in brick. In front of the sixth and seven bays is a two-storey stone porch with four fluted Doric columns, an entablature with a frieze, and a balcony with an openwork balustrade. Between the third and fourth bays is a slim octagonal tower with an ogee cap and a weathervane. The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.[4]
