Moss Hall, Audlem, is a manor house 0.5 miles (1 km) northwest of Audlem, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.[1] The Hall overlooks the Shropshire Union Canal.[2]
The hall was built in 1616 for Hugh Massy.[3] It is timber-framed with rendered infill, and close studded with a middle rail to both floors. It is in two storeys with attics, and has a plain tile roof. The entrance front has five bays with four gables. The house is nearly symmetrical, is E-shaped, and is set on an ashlar plinth. In its centre is a two-storey gabled porch wing, which is a later addition. The first floor is jettied and supported on carved brackets.[1][4] It has been described as "a surprisingly complete example of a gentleman's house of the early 17th century".[1]
