Buckshaw Hall, Rear view
Image: © Alexander P Kapp Taken: 12 Dec 2008
Was built in 1650's by the Robinson family.This two storey timber hall had its central part flanked by two protruding gables, one at each end with two brick chimneys built into northerly and southerly elevations. The hall stayed in private possession until around 1937 when it was purchased, with the accompanying farmland, by the R.O.F. to build a munitions factory. Nearing its complete restoration, the hall will eventually be sold. Link to a photo circa 2005. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/18039
