Description

Combined architectural and archaeological survey of the ruined remains of Tabley Old Hall, Grade II* Listed, and the island upon which it sits which is also a scheduled monument. The survey was undertaken in 2017 by Historic England as the Old Hall has been placed on the Heritage at Risk Register due to the on-going threat of subsidence due to historic brine pumping and the deteriorating condition of the standing remains. The purpose of the survey was to record the condition of the remains and understand the significance of the site in order to contribute to the development of a management plan for the site. As part of this project, dendrochronological analysis of some timbers of the Old Hall was undertaken and is reported on separately, see ECH6573, SCH8517. (1)
