Title: Staveley Hall
Post by: Pete on January 21, 2012, 04:51:37 PM
According to the DT site Staveley Hall and its grounds are to be revamped with £880,000 from Heritage Lottery Fund.

"The work, part of the Heart of Staveley Project, will include roof repairs, conserving historic features and renovating of the ground floor which will be opened up for use by the community."

It looks amazing, but I must admit I don't know it or where it is...  :-[

Is it the building that houses/did house the library, at the top of Hall Lane? Answer: No!

OK - just done some 'digging' - its just before Hall Lane when travelling out of Staveley on Duke Street - here's the website:
