Bold Hall
[edit](edit removed from article page [1])
There were actually two Bold Halls. When Peter Bold developed his estate in the early 18th century, he commissioned Venetian Architect, Giacomo (aka James) Leoni (1686 –1746) to design a new mansion. This was built in 1732 and the old hall - which the Liverpool Mercury of 1893 described as “a curious edifice of very ancient date” - was then used as a farmhouse to the mansion. It was said to have been rebuilt in 1616 and was only demolished in 1936, surviving the new hall by some thirty years.
The farms on the estate included Bold Hall Demesne Farm which measured 318 acres and in 1849 an advertisement in the Liverpool Mercury said it was "fine Land, thoroughly drained, newly fenced, and replete with recently erected Farm Buildings, of the most approved construction, with 6-horse power Steam Engine, Thrashing and Dressing Machines, Steaming Apparatus, &c.". There was also a Moat House Farm of 186 acres.
Here are a couple of 19th century descriptions of Bold Hall, the first from 1860:
