Worsley Old Hall
Worsley Old Hall is a former house, now a public house and restaurant, off Walkden Road (A575), Worsley, Greater Manchester, England. Historically situated within Lancashire, it is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building. In this building the Bridgewater Canal was planned and its construction supervised.
==History==
The present building on the site dates from the 16th or early 17th century. It was originally a timber-framed building which has been rebuilt in brick. It is thought that it originally consisted of a hall range on the south side, with wings extending to the north on the east and west sides. The house was remodelled in the 18th century with the addition of a range immediately to the north of the hall range. It was substantially extended in or around 1855 when an extension was added to the east wing. Further work was carried out in 1891; in 1905 the space between the wings was filled in with a billiard room; and in 1906 a small wing was added on the northwest side. During the 20th century there were further internal alterations, particularly in the 1990s when it was converted into a restaurant.〔 The hall is of particular historical importance because it was here that Francis Egerton, the 3rd Duke of Bridgewater, James Brindley and John Gilbert planned the Bridgewater Canal and supervised its building.
