A brief history
Cheswardine Hall has a history from about 1800.
The overall property was broken up and sold several times over the years. A detailed history of the Hall, up to the present day, can be found at Cheswardine Manor
The Hall was purchased by the de la Mennais order in 1950 and remained in their hands until 1968. At that time the remaining boys moved to the school in Liverpool.
The property was given over to an approved school for a time and has been run as a high quality home for the elderly, by the Poole family, since 1985 Cheswardine Hall, whose owners kindly gave us permission to use their pictures.
