Underbank Hall

Underbank Hall is a 16th-century town house in the centre of Stockport, Greater Manchester, England (grid reference SJ895905). The hall dates back to the 15th century and became a Grade II* listed building on 13 May 1952. It was the home of a branch of the Arden family of Bredbury, who were related to William Shakespeare on his mother's side. In 1823 it was sold by William Arden, 2nd Baron Alvanley to pay off debts, and became a bank. A banking hall was then added to the rear in 1919. The hall is still used as a bank today and currently houses the NatWest branch for Stockport.
