About this event

Nestled in the heart of Bradford-on-Avon, only a short 10-minute journey from Bath, The Hall is a hidden Grade I listed Jacobean gem waiting to be discovered.

Built in 1610 and renowned for its architectural and historical importance, The Hall has been home to visionaries and inventors who have shaped the industries of the United Kingdom. From its grand architecture and tranquil grounds to its rich stories spanning centuries, every corner invites you to experience something truly special.

Your guided tour ticket includes:

  • 1-hour guided tour unveiling the rich heritage of this meticulously preserved 17th-century home, adorned with period furnishings, tapestries, paintings and elegant décor.
  • Explore magnificent rooms across three floors and learn the stories of the eccentric residents who once resided within, such as Elizabeth Chudleigh, the notorious Duchess of Kingston, who would scandalise Georgian society.
  • Learn about engineer and inventor Alex Moulton, a former resident of The Hall, who pioneered the automotive industry with his revolutionary suspension design and iconic Moulton Bicycle.
  • Access to the Women at The Hall Exhibition. A showcase of the untold stories and remarkable achievements of the historic women who called The Hall their home over the past 400 years.
  • Guests will be able to explore the magnificent seven acres of exquisite grounds once described by Country Life as “amongst the most interesting of their kind in England.” Discover secret hidden corners, deep ponds, towering ancient trees and local wildlife.
  • Guests are encouraged to bring a picnic to enjoy on the grounds upon the conclusion of their tour.
