Discover Whitmore Hall, featured in Saving Country Houses on Channel 4’s More4. A celebration of the history, passion, and care behind Britain’s treasured country homes.
Nestled within the wider Whitmore Estate in the North Staffordshire countryside, Whitmore Hall is surrounded by tranquil parkland, fisheries, and the beautiful waters of Whitmore Lakes.
One of the Hall’s most remarkable features is its stable block, a rare surviving structure with a cobbled ground floor and nine beautifully carved Elizabethan oak stalls. Ritual burn marks on the first-floor timbers, meant to ward off misfortune, serve as a poignant reminder of a time when daily life was more arduous and knowledge of unseen forces was scarce.
Today, Whitmore Hall is open to visitors on select days from March to September, with guided tours revealing the rich stories, architecture, and heritage of this enduring family home. Looking to the future, the Cavenagh-Mainwaring family plans to restore and reopen the Kitchen Garden in 2026, continuing their commitment to preserving and evolving the estate. Those wishing to support the Kitchen Garden’s restoration are warmly invited to get in touch.
