The Raikes Hall Hotel
The Raikes Hall Gardens, which were first opened to the public in 1872, were once expansive and grand. Today, only a portion of these historic gardens remains. However, this remaining section is significant in its own right, being recognized as a Grade II listed building. This designation is a testament to its architectural and historical value. In addition to its rich history and beautiful architecture, the site also boasts its own bowling green, offering a unique recreational feature for visitors. Despite the reduction in its size over the years, the enduring charm and significance of the Raikes Hall Gardens continue to captivate those who visit.
