Description
Bache Hall, Grade II, was built in the early 18th century replacing an earlier house. It had a lodge at the entrance from Liverpool Road, extensive gardens, trees, woodlands, a waterfall and bridges over the Bache Brook.
Owners of Bache Hall have been associated with Kinmel Park, North Wales, Sibbersfield in Cheshire and Flesk Castle, Ireland.
The grounds of Bache Hall have largely been lost due to road widening, construction of Countess Way, housing development and the expansion of the Countess of Chester Hospital.
Bache Hall is currently owned by the University of Chester and now houses research facilities for the Chester Medical School.
