Abstract: |
This report provides a brief summary of sources available for charting the history of Park Hall, formerly known as Park House, a late Victorian residence in Ashbrooke, Sunderland. The structure is one of a number of villas constructed in the 1870s as an extension of an earlier complex of grand residences which sat in an extensive parkland landscape, comprising woodland and formal gardens, south of the new Mowbray Road/The Cloisters. Prior to this period, the area was occupied by open farmland divided by enclosure period boundaries. The report gives details of photographs provided as a permanent record of the building which is earmarked for imminent demolition, along with the adjacent, modern Williamson Hall. Attention is drawn to a number of interesting or unusual internal and external features of the buildings, and a recommendation is made with respect to the possible salvage of some of these features for incorporation, where appropriate, in the new building complex to be constructed on the site. |
