Hartford Manor

Hartford Manor is a house in the village of Hartford, Cheshire, England. Its age is uncertain; it was said to have been re-fronted in about 1820 for John Marshall, but the core of the building is earlier.[1] It has since been altered and extended.[2] During the 20th century the building came to be used an office. It one time it was used by North West Gas;[1] as of 2011 it is the office of Holidaybreak.[3] The house is constructed in yellow ashlar stone, and it has a hipped slated roof. Its front is symmetrical with two storeys and five bays. The central bay is slightly bowed, and contains a portico with two Doric columns and a flat entablature. It has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II listed building.[2]
