Rainhill Hall Farm
Image: © Sue Adair Taken: 24 Aug 2014
This farm is built on the site of Rainhill Hall a 14th century moated manor house constructed around a courtyard and owned by the Lancaster family, very little of the original building remains. On the 1849-1850 Lancashire map it was still labelled as Rainhill Hall. The building was listed a hundred years later and although already converted to a farmhouse, many ancient features survived at that time.
