Blakesley Hall, Gallery

Located some six miles east of the city centre, Blakesley Hall (Grade II* listed) is a delightfully restored timber-framed Elizabethan house set amidst idyllic grounds and with fine period interiors. Built in 1590 for Richard Smallbroke, Blakesley Hall provides a marvellous insight into the social aspirations of the Tudor middle-classes. The delightful grounds are a sight to behold throughout the seasons. With formal lawns, a traditional herb garden, an orchard and herbaceous borders, the site offers excellent opportunity for photographs. Modern gallery, barn & Great Hall available for hire.

The Gallery space at Blakesley Hall is located in the modern visitors centre at the entrance to the site. A clean and bright space with high ceilings and underfloor heating, the gallery provides a perfect space for meetings, presentations and training sessions. The entrance to the Gallery provides an open view of the picturesque gardens and of the Great Hall itself, while the space can also be closed off for private functions. The proximity to our tearoom means a tea or coffee are never far away.
