Aerial view of Scarisbrick Hall, 1949.
Scarisbrick Hall was the ancestral home of the Scarisbrick family who lived on the site from 1238 until the house was sold in 1946 to become a training college. Parts of the present building, which is considered to be one of the finest examples of Victorian Gothic architecture in England, were designed by the architect Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin with later renovations carried out by his son, Edward W. Pugin. The most notable feature of Scarisbrick Hall is the 100-foot tower, which can be seen for many miles around.
