HADDON HALL



Located just South of Bakewell.

Grade 1 listed building.



Manor house built on a double courtyard plan and set within a grade I Registered Park and Garden. It has 12th century origins, but is largely of 14th and 15th century date.



The Manners family continue to live in the Hall which is mostly open to the public in season, for a fee.



The cross-wing of about 1370 divides the Lower from the Upper Courtyard. The upper courtyard was built mainly in the second quarter of the 14th century and the lower courtyard built mostly in the 15th century.



The chapel was completed 1427, and has fine 'grisailles' wall paintings to the nave and early 17th century oak pews and furnishings, inscribed 'GM 1624'. The chapel was formerly used as a parish church for the village of Nether Haddon which was located on the other side of the main road.



A local legend of Dorothy Vernon eloping (1563) with John Manners was the inspiration of an operetta "Haddon Hall" by Arthur Sullivan. There was a 1924 film "Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall" based on a 1902 novel of the same name.



The Great Central Railway which connected Manchester to London via Bakewell lies just underground slightly to the North of the Hall. The original intended route past Chatsworth was not permitted and the condition of the route past Haddon was the line not be visible. The line was cut back and now forms a footpath North to Buxton. To the South the railway runs as a preserved line from Rowsley and as a normal railway from Matlock.



In the 18th and 19th centuries Haddon was almost abandoned as the family lived in Belvoir, but restoration commenced in 1912 and Haddon is now the Manners family home.



The Hall is on the route of a regular and long running bus service between Buxton and Derby via Bakewell.



Immediately across the main road from the Hall, lies Nether Haddon medieval settlement and part of an open field system, Romano-British field system and lead mining remains. Parallel to the main road for a short distance is the former "main road" of the settlement, a "hollow way". This area is a listed monument.
