Ellowes Hall

Ellowes Hall

Ellowes Hall was a stately home located in Sedgley, Staffordshire (now West Midlands). It was built in the early 19th century in parkland near Lower Gornal village as the home of a wealthy local ironmonger. Over the next 100 years or more, successive different wealthy owners lived in the house.

Ellowes Hall was demolished in 1964 - the same year that a new secondary school with the same name was built nearby. More than 40 years on, the "old coach road" which connected the hall with nearby Moden Hill is still in existence as a public footpath, but motor vehicles are no longer allowed to use it. The surrounding woodland, which forms part of Cotwall End Valley, is still known locally as Ellowes Hall Wood.
