History

The current Wormhill Hall was constructed in 1697 for Adam Bagshawe (1646–1723). The Bagshawe family had owned the Manor of Wormhill since the 15th century, and Adam's brother William Bagshaw resided at nearby Ford Hall.[2]

Adam Bagshawe resided at the hall with his wife Alice Torr of Goosehill Hall, Castleton, upon his death, the hall was left to their son Adam Bagshawe (1673–1729). Adam died shortly following his father, and the hall was left to his brother Richard Bagshawe.[3] The hall remained with the Bagshawe family.[4][5]

The range is separately Grade-II listed.[6]
