Tips from the Community

Catherine
July 31, 2025, Peover Hall and Gardens

The house was refaced in 1585 and was built for Sir Ralph Mainwaring. There have been alterations and additions to the house in around 1653–56, around 1764, around 1944 and in 1966. It was originally planned as an H- shaped house but this plan was abandoned around 1590. In 1654 a stable block was built. The alterations in the 1760s included a wing at a right-angle to the house (added c.1764), making it a T-shape, and a new stable block and coach house. In 1919 the Mainwaring family sold the house to John Graham Peel and it was sold again to Harry Brooks in 1940. During the Second World War the house was requisitioned and used by General George Patton and his staff. The hall was also used as a prisoner of war camp, and as a resettlement home for allied prisoners of war and for English people repatriated after the partition of India. It was returned to the Brooks family in 1950. The 1760s wing was in poor condition and was demolished in 1964, taking the house from 21 to 11 bedrooms, other modifications were made too, including a new entrance.

Avoid when rains heavily as does not drain! (You know it's bad when mini bridges from sticks are placed across swamp puddles!)

Nice views of river and bank, good place for your dogs to wash down.

Very pleasant walk, quite muddy in places so a great opportunity to justify those expensive walking boots.

Note: this stretch is a woodland footpath, overgrown in places. One for the off-road enthusiast.

large and impressive mellow brick building on the junction of Stocks Lane and the A50, almost opposite the entrance to Radbroke hall. Four rooms lead off a spacious central bar and it is the privacy given by these smaller rooms which makes the pub popular for meetings by a number of local groups. The pub has all the hallmarks of the Sam Smith trade, viz no music or quizzes, web page, Facebook and their own brand of beer, mixers and spirits. A large and secluded beer garden is popular in fine weather, particularly for families. Food is served every lunchtime and in the evenings from Tuesday to Saturday. Bus 88 passes the door, check timetable marked as timing point
