In this view of the west wing of the Hall, the new doorway can be seen, with Thomas Banks' car parked in front. The embankment beyond is that of the Pemberton Loop Line.

Lived here approx. 1956-58, the hall owed by the NCB was split into three, one part for the manager of Ince Moss pit, one part for my family (Father worked for NCB transport) and the third part was occupied by a lady and her son. Would liked to know any history. (Spooky place !)

My mother Edna May Phillips lived here from 1919 until 1934 with the Farrimond family. Would love to here more about the hall.
