Brief description

"Adlington Hall stands in open countryside to the west of the village of Adlington, Cheshire, England.[24] It was designated a Grade I listed building on 25 July 1952.[3] Grade I listing means that the building is acknowledged to be "of exceptional interest, sometimes considered to be internationally important".[13] The hall was privately owned by the Leigh family, who lived in the hall, and was sold in 2023 with 1,921 acres, the guide price having been £30 million.[2][5][25] It is open to the public and for guided tours for groups at advertised times.[26]

The Great Hall and the Hunting Lodge are available to be hired for weddings and social functions.[27][28] The south wing of the stable block has been converted into eight flats and is known as The Mews. It has been designated as a Grade II* listed building.[29] Grade II* listing applies to "particularly important buildings of more than special interest".[13] The east wing is listed Grade II and has been converted into two flats and tea rooms.[30] The landscape park has been registered at Grade II* in the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.[31] Designation as Grade II* on the Register means that the site is "particularly important, of more than special interest".[32]

In 1984 the Hall was used as the location for Stoke Moran, home of Dr Grimesby Roylott, for the episode "The Speckled Band" (1984) of the Granada TV series Sherlock Holmes.[33] In 1986 it was used again in the series for the "Abbey Grange" episode."

"now used for corporate events and weddings"
