Littledean Hall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Littledean Hall (grid reference SO672130) is a country house in the village of Littledean, Gloucestershire, England.

Originally a Saxon hall, it was then converted to a Norman hall, evolving into a substantial medieval manor house by the time it was eventually replaced with a Jacobean house in 1612.

The coach house and cellar of Dean Hall are used as breeding roosts by Greater Horseshoe Bats. Because of this, a 200 square metre section of the buildings was notified as a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1988.
