Nestled in the heart of Wiltshire, this magnificent residence boasts a rich tapestry woven over centuries. The story begins in the 16th century, when the Hall family, prominent wool merchants, first laid the foundations. Over generations, The Hall witnessed the evolution of the Hall's fortunes, their influence on the town, and the changing architectural styles that shaped England's landscape.
The next remarkable family to stamp its mark on the property were the Moulton Family. Not only did they shape Bradford on Avon, but two family members shaped the world!
Stephen Moulton introduced vulcanised rubber to Britain, a revolutionary invention by Charles Goodyear. He played a key role in establishing the UK rubber industry.
Alex Moulton's engineering expertise played a crucial role in the automotive industry. He developed the rubber suspension system used in the iconic Mini car launched in 1959. This clever design allowed the Mini's small size to coexist with excellent handling and a comfortable ride.
He was equally famous for creating the revolutionary small-wheeled Moulton bicycle in the 1960s the biggest redesign of the bicycle for over 60 years! He was the final owner of the mansion.
For this special video, we were honoured to be invited by the Alex Moulton Charitable Trust, the custodians of The Hall to stay for the weekend. This incredible opportunity allowed us exclusive access to explore the hidden nooks and crannies that most visitors to historic houses never get to see and even spend the night ALONE! in this wonderful property, 3 luxury rooms are now available to book overnight for incredible unique stays and we will share our experience.
Prepare to be surprised as we unlock the secrets behind the grand facade, every corner unveils a new detail, piecing together the intricate puzzle of life at The Hall.
