Background
History
Radbroke Hall was built between 1914 and 1917 for Manchester businessman Claude Hardy and his wife Olga. The architect was Percy Worthington. Originally from Belfast, Claude Hardy had a successful textile manufacturing business in Manchester. Unfortunately, Claude's death in 1916 left his widow to oversee the completion of the building work alone. The house and parts of the gardens are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated Grade II listed buildings.
Description
With Radbroke Hall being left mainly unoccupied during the 1920s and 1930s, it was sold by the Hardy Family in 1956 to the Nuclear Power Group who built offices and a testing tower on the grounds.
