MenuBewsey Old Hall, Lancashire
Bewsey Old Hall is a 17th-century building on the outskirts of Warrington, Lancashire. The largely Jacobean building is currently of three-storey construction, with distinctive chimneys and stone mullion windows. This is likely to be the work of Sir Thomas Ireland who was knighted at Bewsey in 1617 by King James I. Bewsey Old Hall was originally built by William Fitz Almeric le Boteler and was home to the Lords of Warrington from the 13th century for many generations. The name 'Bewsey' is believed to have been derived from the French Beau Se, or 'is beautiful' and likely refers to the hall's position on the edge of Burton Wood, next to Sankey Brook. Bewsey Old Hall is now home to flats. It is within the council area of Warrington.
