History

Stanley Hall is a two-story house located adjacent to the River Severn, near Bridgnorth. The 17th century timber-framed stone and brick house was considerably enlarged by John Smalman in the Tudor-Gothic style around {{circa|1816}}-1820 for Sir Thomas Tyrwhitt-Jones, 2nd Baronet.

The Hall was sold by his great-grandson, the well known eccentric Lord Berners, who sold the property and moved to Faringdon House in Oxfordshire. Thomas Cundy drew-up plans for the remodeling, but Tyrwhitt-Jones went to the local builder-cum-architect Smalman instead, who gave him the basic house we see today.{{cite web |title=Stanley Hall |url=https://www.thedicamillo.com/house/stanley-hall/ |website=www.thedicamillo.com |publisher=DiCamillo |access-date=5 December 2023}}
