Shenton Hall
Highlight • Other
William Wollaston purchased the 2,300-acre (930 ha) estate at Shenton in 1626. Though the family had humble origins from Staffordshire, Henry Wollaston had established a successful drapery business in London, after being apprenticed to a woollen draper as a young man. In 1616, Henry Wollaston died and William inherited his father’s profitable business, which enabled him to purchase Shenton Hall.
Records state that William Wollaston did not begin to build (or rebuild) Shenton Hall until 1629. Wollaston displayed this date along with his initials on a stone tablet set into the gatehouse (“WW 1629“).
The house was greatly extended to the rear in 1862. The Wollastons occupied the house until 1940 when the army took possession of it.
