Description

West Hall is first mentioned in 1475, although curiously it does not appear on the Chapman and André map of 1777. West Hall (EHER 35035) consists of a seventeenth century or earlier timber-farmed central range, with a nineteenth century brick range to the east. It came into the hands of the Wiseman family in 1622, before passing through a succession of owners until the Pechell Family purchased it in 1765, in whose hands it still was in 1972. The 1881 1st edition OS map shows two hop-kilns on its land. <1> Known as 'West Hall' in 1487. <2>
