Rushden Hall
Rushden Hall
Rushden Hall, the town’s oldest domestic building and with features from the 14th century architecture, is set in 32 acres of parkland.
The structure is a confusing jumble of styles and dates that has given rise to an attractive mellow limestone edifice under a clay tile roof.
