Hoole Hall
Hoole Hall is a former country house located to the north of Chester, Cheshire, England. It originated as a small house in about 1760, built for the Rev John Baldwin.〔〔 After Rev Baldwin's death in 1793, the house passed to his eldest son, Thomas Baldwin, who then sold the house and surrounding land in 1800.
Extensive additions were made to it in the 19th century including an elaborate cast iron conservatory.〔〔 The conservatory was designed by Thomas Harrison in about 1820. During the 20th century the house became derelict, but was then converted into a hotel. It is constructed in plum-coloured brick, with stone dressings and a Welsh slate roof. Its plan is square, plus a servants' wing. The west wing has two storeys, is symmetrical, sits on a stone plinth, and has rusticated quoins.〔 Figueirdo and Treuherz describe it as "a miniature astylar Palladian villa of brick with stucco dressings".〔 The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.〔
==The Reverend John Baldwin==
The Reverend John Baldwin built Hoole Hall in about 1760.〔English Heritage List, “Hoole Hall”. (Online reference )〕 He was born in 1710 and was the son of Rev. Thomas Baldwin of Leyland. His mother was Anne Rigbye the daughter of Nicholas Rigbye of Harrock Hall who died in 1740. When Anne’s two brothers died without issue Harrock Hall was passed to their sister Eleanor for her life and when she died in 1787 it was passed to her nephew (Anne’s son) Rev John Baldwin. From this day he was obliged to change his name to Rigbye.〔National Archives “Papers of the Rigbye family of Harrock Hall, Wrightington”. (Online reference )〕 He moved with his wife to Harrock Hall where he died in 1793. He left Hoole Hall to his eldest son Thomas Baldwin. Thomas was a balloonist who wrote a book about his experience in a hot air balloon in 1785. The book can be read (here ). He sold the house to Mrs Fairfax who in turn sold it to John Oliver.〔Hanshall, J. H. “The History of the County Palatine of Chester”.(Online reference )〕
