Introduction
Mellington Hall is a late-19th-century house with formal terraced gardens, wooded pleasure grounds and a small park. A section of Offa's Dyke bisects the parkland, which also contains a lake and a replanted avenue. Since the late-20th century there has been a caravan park on the site and Mellington Hall is now a hotel.
