It is built to an H-plan with two-storey timber framing on a sandstone base, with both brick and wattle and daub infilling and a slate roof.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Buckshaw Hall-Euxton-Lancashire ) 〕 ==History== The Buckshaw Estate was originally owned by the Anderton family, who in 1652 sold it to Major Edward Robinson, who built the present hall in 1654. In the 19th century the estate was sold to John Walmsley and then passed to the Towneley Parkers of Cuerden Hall and the Crosse family of Shaw Hill. Extensive restoration of the southern wing was carried out by Colonel Thomas Richard Crosse in 1885, after which it was sold to Richard Stock, who in 1936 sold the estate and surrounding farmland to the Ministry of Supply to establish a new munitions factory. The munitions complex was known as ROF Chorley and the hall was used for office accommodation. 〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title= Buckshaw Hall ) 〕 In 2005 the factory was closed and the site transferred back to private ownership. Much of the land is being developed for housing as Buckshaw Village. The hall is now privately owned by John Greenhalgh. It was vandalised in 2012. 〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Vandals Target Historic Landmark ) 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buckshaw Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
