Bostock Hall is a country house to the northeast of Winsford, Cheshire, England. A former Georgian house, it was rebuilt in 1775 for Edward Tomkinson.{{Citation | last = de Figueiredo | first = Peter | last2 = Treuherz | first2 = Julian | year = 1988 | title = Cheshire Country Houses | publication-place = Chichester | publisher = Phillimore | pages = [https://archive.org/details/cheshirecountryh0000defi/page/218 218–219] | isbn = 0-85033-655-4 | url = https://archive.org/details/cheshirecountryh0000defi/page/218 }} It is thought that the architect was Samuel Wyatt.
Alterations and additions were made to it in the middle of the 19th century and in 1875. The house is constructed in brick with ashlar dressings; it has a slate roof. It is in three storeys plus a basement. Its plan is L-shaped. The entrance front has a central bow window rising through all floors, and a single-storey porch with a balustraded parapet.
The garden front has two bows, between which are a Venetian window with a Diocletian window above. The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.
