Moseley Old Hall is a small 17th-century country house in Cheadle, Greater Manchester, England.
The construction date of the hall is uncertain, although there is an inscription carved into the doorway, reading, 'R.M. 1663'. [1] The hall was built for Sir Nicholas Moseley on an open woodland plot; [2] it is now at the end of a suburban road.
It was reputed that Bonnie Prince Charlie visited the hall in the 1740s during the Jacobite rebellion. [3]
In the early 1900s, a significant deal took place in the morning room of the hall, ensuring the future of Newton Heath Football Club, which would later become known as Manchester United. [4]
It was designated a Grade II* listed building on 24 March 1950. [1] [5]
Having been listed on Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register in 2019 due to structural issues, [2] the hall came off the register in 2024 after undergoing restoration. [6]
