Ladbroke Hall is an 18th-century country house, now converted into residential apartments, situated at Ladbroke, near Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire, England. It is a Grade II listed building. The Ladbroke estate was the home of the Palmer family having been purchased by William Palmer in 1633. The present house was built in a Georgian style in the 18th century. It was designed to an H-shaped plan, the entrance frontage being two storeyed with gabled attics, and seven bays, the three central bays recessed. In 1825, a later William Palmer of Ladbroke inherited the Derbyshire estate of his aunt Helen Morewood at Alfreton Hall and took the surname Palmer-Morewood. His grandson Charles Rowland Palmer-Morewood was High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1871 and of Warwickshire in 1880. The 1881 British Census discloses his residence on the estate with a retinue of thirteen servants. ==References== * ( Architectural description of listed building ), Images of England, English Heritage, UK. * [http://www.british-history.ac.uk/Report.aspx?compid=57114 ''A History of the County of Warwick'' Vol 6 (1951) pp.143–147, [http://www.british-history.ac.uk/ British History Online], UK. 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「Ladbroke Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
