Old Worden Hall
Old Worden Hall is another historic building which has been hidden for many years within the grounds of the Royal Ordnance site. Now that the site has largely closed and the land is being redeveloped for housing, it is possible to once again see this Hall. Whether it will be renovated or demolished remains to be seen - it certainly can't stay as it is once the houses are built!

Buckshaw Hall
Buckshaw Hall appears in both the 1940 and the current OS map, but neither map shows the history of the area. From the 1940's until very recently, this whole area was a Royal Ordnance weapons factory. The factory has now largely closed, and the land is being redeveloped into a large housing estate. Buckshaw Hall is one of three halls within the area which have been hidden from view and largely untouched for many years. The presence of scaffolding and plastic covers suggest that restoration work is planned.
