Introduction
The hall, which had belonged to the Wolseley family since before the Conquest, was demolished in the mid-20th century. The walled kitchen garden contains housing. The site, now in use as a nature reserve and headquarters of the Staffordshire Wildlife Trust, shows remnants of a failed business venture of 1990 to create a garden park with pools, shrubs and bamboos. Only the ice house remains.
