Hockenhull Hall, Cheshire

Hockenhull Hall is a former manor house near Tarvin, Cheshire. It was first mentioned in 1347 as 'a certain Peele made by Richard de Hockenhull', which suggests a moated or stockaded site. In the late 17th century it was remodelled by Francis Smith for Hugh Wishaw of Chester. It is built in brick with sandstone dressings and has a square plan. The roof is in Welsh slate and is hipped. The hall is built in two storeys over a basement, with the main façades facing the south and the east. The hall is part of a working farm. It is within the council area of Cheshire West and Chester.
Historic England Grade II* Listed 1130525.
