Crook Hall

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

The original Crook Hall was built around 1286 on lands belonging to Sydgate Manor. The property was eventually named after Peter de Croke, owner in the early years of the 14th century. Only the great hall and a screen passage remain from that early medieval building, but they are enough to give a good impression of the first Crook Hall. You can easily see where the old medieval doorways have been filled in. The screen passage leads to a Jacobean addition.
Garden: Surounding medieval Crook Hall are 4 acres of gardens, including a special Shakespeare Garden, a secret Walled Garden, Cathedral Garden, and Silver and White Garden, as well as a grass maze. more details ...
