Description

The photographer's notes state: 'The South Range. Easterly part of the south front and the gabled east end from the S. East at the intersection of the dried up east (nearer) & north arms of the moat'.

Well Hall was originally a 16th century moated manor house owned by the Roper Family. It was demolished in 1733 and replaced with Well Hall House. The surviving older buildings were used then used as farm buildings. Well Hall House was demolished in the summer of 1931 and the Tudor Barn, was converted into an art gallery and restaurant in 1936. The grounds of the house, including the moat, became Well Hall Pleasaunce Public Park.
