"A tremendous mixture of styles, Adlington Hall was founded at the end of the 15th century and then reworked in the 18th century. So while the north and east facades have romantic black and white timber framing the south and west wings are brick built, with a solemn Palladian portico. Adlington is hired out for weddings, but on Sundays between April and October the house and gardens are open to visitors."

"A post shared by Amanda Hope-Appleby (@amandahopeappleby) on Sep 10, 2017 at 7:44am PDT. This beautiful heritage attraction is the last remains of what was once the Great Sheffield Deer Park. It is home to the ruins of a grand Tudor mansion (where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned for 14 years), a working farm, and 1940s cottages, which recreate life on the eve of the Sheffield Blitz."
