Hampton Old Hall
Hampton Old Hall is a country house in the parish of Hampton, Cheshire, England. It is dated 1591, and was built for the Bromley family.[1] There have been subsequent additions and alterations.[2] Figueirdo and Treuherz describe it as "a puzzling and ambitious house, perhaps never completed".[1] The main block is the earliest section, and consists of a close-studded timber-framed range with three gables. Adjoining it is a 17th-century timber-framed porch. Behind the porch is a south wing in brick and stone.[1] The architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner comments "there must be quite an interesting story behind all this".[3] The house has been "restored and furnished ... in a solid and traditional farmhouse manor".[1] It is designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.[2] A timber-framed barn to the north of the hall, dating from the 17th century, is listed at Grade II.[4]
