Hagley Hall
Hagley Hall and Park is a
wonderful example of 18th century English Architecture. Boasting 350 acres of
deer park with its own church, the hall houses Van Dyke paintings, fine
Chippendale furniture and Rococco plasterwork. The property once belonged to
George 1st Lord Lyttelton who was secretary to the Prince of Wales. The hall was
completed in 1760.
In 1925 a terrible fire
destroyed a large section of the property and much of its contents. However, the
damage was repaired and the hall restored to its former glory. Today the hall is
home to Lord and Lady Cobham who own the residence which is used as their family
home. The hall also caters for conferences, business meetings and events
throughout the year. No trip to the West Midlands is complete without a visit to
this fine example of architecture and glorious parkland.
