Background

History

The construction date of the hall is uncertain, although there is an inscription carved into the doorway, reading, 'R.M. 1663'. The hall was built for Sir Nicholas Moseley on an open woodland plot; it is now at the end of a suburban road. It was reputed that Bonnie Prince Charlie visited the hall in the 1740s during the Jacobite rebellion. In the early 1900s, a significant deal took place in the morning room of the hall, ensuring the future of Newton Heath Football Club, which would later become known as Manchester United. It was designated a Grade II* listed building on 24 March 1950. Having been listed on Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register in 2019 due to structural issues,
