Ordsall Hall is a former manor house with a history spanning over 750 years, offering a wealth of historical insights with the support of friendly volunteers and staff who provide guided tours and a detailed background about the history.
Ordsall Hall offers free entry from Monday to Thursday, and it remains closed on Fridays and Saturdays. it is also open on Sunday's. The Hall hosts a variety of entertaining events and activities suitable for the whole family, and you can even try on costumes and chainmail!
It's an exciting and enjoyable day out for all, featuring approximately 360 rooms to explore, each with its own historical significance. Additionally, there's a café and formal gardens on site. Friendly dogs are welcome in the gardens but must be kept on leads, stay on the hard pathways, and avoid going on the grass.
Dogs are welcome in the café area, where water bowls are available. On Tuesday, March 18th, the volunteers from Hopwood Hall Estate enjoyed a visit to Ordsall Hall as a way to stay connected and meet with each other amidst an ongoing legal dispute with Hopwood Hall Estate and Rochdale Council.
The volunteers strive to organise outings to stay connected with one another until they can eventually return to Hopwood Hall Estate and resume their dedicated efforts in restoring the currently neglected hall.
At Ordsall Hall, the staff and volunteers were welcoming and ready to help, offering historical information about each room and the hall as a whole. A delightful volunteer named Sue was particularly inspiring, with her extensive knowledge and insights, making her a wonderful person to listen to and converse with. She is truly an incredible asset as a volunteer.
If you're seeking an enjoyable family outing and require a spot where everyone can have fun, we strongly suggest visiting Ordsall Hall at 322 Ordsall Ln, Salford M5 3AN
