Court Hey Hall was a mansion in England built for Robertson Gladstone (1805–1875), elder brother of William Ewart Gladstone. The hall was built c.1836 in the Court Hey area of what is now Knowsley Borough in Merseyside and stayed in the Gladstone family until the death of one of his sons in 1919. The estate was purchased in the same year by J. Bibby and Sons, cattle food manufacturers, and the Hall was used as a sports and social centre for the Bibby employees. By 1948 the hall was beginning to deteriorate and in 1951 the company sold it and the estate to Huyton-With-Roby Council. The hall was demolished in 1956 and part of the grounds were turned into a public park called Court Hey Park. It is now the home of the National Wildflower Centre. The remainder of the estate was used for housing development. ==Sources== * ''In and Around Broad Green'', Liverpool. Author Edward Barker.
