The Shropshire Archives holds a collection of materials on the building of the 'new' hall by Henry Reginald Corbet, who invited the architect, George Devey, 'to inspect the old house of Adderley to make it habitable'.

Devey concluded that little could be done on account of its condition and outlook, recommending it be pulled down and a new hall placed on an elevated position to the northwest.

The architect produced plans that were not to his clients' satisfaction and following discussions, led by Mrs Corbet, a new design agreed.

Some sources indicate that rotten flooring led to the demise of the property, leading to its demolition some 60 years later – it could be assumed that using the wooden partition to hold up the weight of the grand tiled roof may have led to structural issues if rot was indeed a factor in the decision to demolish in 1955.
