Looking at some photographs of this Hall on a beautiful summers day it looked vibrant and magical.
Today the wind howled through the skeletal remains, every rain drop could be heard as it splashed on the thick foliage around us.
This is natural decay at it's finest, for those who haven't, meet Nettleham Hall..

The halll was originally home to John Hood and his family. In January 1660 John accompanied General Monk from Scotland on his way to restore Charles II.
The hall was mysteriously destroyed by a fire in 1937.



The iron gates were once the entrance to the churchyard at St Peter at Arches, Lincoln and the gate and gate piers were built circa 1720. The design and construction by either Francis or William Smith of Warwick and were relocated here when the church was demolished.















A storage shelf in the underground tunnel system, used by the servants to get around the hall.




























The cottage in the grounds..
