A hall near Sedbergh – complete with a tower – could be yours for £895,000
Ingmire Hall, around two miles from the town, also features a private roof terrace, courtyard garden and four acres of grounds, including woodland and tennis courts.
The Grade II-listed hall is a 16th century house built around the remains of a pele tower.
The Ingmire estate was acquired by Roger Upton in the late 16th century, who left it to his son John Upton, MP for Preston, 1667-81.
The property eventually descended in the female line to John Upton, MP for Westmorland, 1761-68.
It then descended further in the Upton family until it was acquired by Sir John Sutherland Harmood-Banner, High Sheriff of Cheshire (1902), Lord Mayor of Liverpool (1912) and MP for Liverpool Everton for 20 years.
After his death in 1927 the hall was gutted by fire but was afterwards restored.
It was extended again and partially remodelled in 1989. It is built of coursed rubble with quoins and has slate roofs.
The five-bedroom property is on the market with David Britton Estates.
