Baguley Hall, Manchester

Baguley Hall is a unique timber framed hall, built in the 1350's and in the guardianship of English Heritage, listed Grade 1. It has stood empty since the 1950's when it ceased to be occupied as a farmhouse, and is not open to the public.

Allen Tod has conducted several Feasibility Studies on the property for English Heritage, most recently to examine the extension of the house to provide accommodation for the Manchester Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages, and as a venue for civil marriages.

In addition, a wide range of repairs have been completed to the medieval timber frame, and the removal of the 1970's blockwork and render infill panels. They have been replaced with traditional split oak laths and a daub of clay, straw and manure, and urine, finished in lime render and limewash.
