Broadbottom Hall

Broadbottom Hall was constructed in 1680, as indicated by the inscription "JW1680" on the door lintel, likely referring to its original owner, J. de Wooley. The hall was extended during the 19th century, reflecting changes in domestic architecture and the needs of its occupants. Over time, the property became part of the rural estate landscape of Longdendale, alongside other historic farmhouses and halls in the area. On 1 November 1966, Broadbottom Hall was designated a Grade II* listed building for its architectural and historic significance.

Broadbottom Hall is built of hammer-dressed stone with a graduated stone slate roof. It has an L-shaped, two-storey plan featuring a prominent two-storey porch. The original front includes a projecting plinth and stone quoins. Windows are mainly double-chamfered mullions with hood moulds, some restored in the 19th century. The central porch has a cyma-moulded door surround, a dated lintel, and a coped gable with kneelers. The interior retains significant historic features, including timber-framed wattle and daub partitions, chamfered and ovolo-moulded beams, a cyma-moulded stone fireplace, and a splat baluster staircase, along with many original doors.
