Walton Hall, Cheshire
Walton Hall is a country house in Walton, Warrington, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building. The hall and its surrounding garden and grounds are owned and administered by Warrington Borough Council.〔
==History==
The house was built in 1836–38 for Sir Gilbert Greenall, 1st Baronet, brewer and Member of Parliament.〔 The local authority website states it was designed by the Lancaster architect Edmund Sharpe.〔 However this is not confirmed by any authoritative source.〔〔 When Sir Gilbert died in 1894, the house was inherited by his son, Gilbert Greenall, 1st Baron Daresbury, who lived there until his death in 1938.
In 1869–70 the house was extended and offices were added by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin. The extension included a new wing with a tower, containing a billiards room and rooms for guests, and a new entrance on the east front.〔 The house and grounds were purchased by Warrington Corporation in 1941. The gardens were opened to the public in 1945.〔 Most of Paley and Austin's extension was demolished in about 1990, but the tower was retained.〔
