Bolesworth Castle

Bolesworth Castle is a country house 2 miles (3 km) south of the village of Tattenhall, Cheshire, England.

[1] Bolesworth Castle was built for George Walmesley, a Manchester businessman, to a design by William Cole in 1829,[1] on the site of an older house dating from 1750.

[11] The house and estate of 6,000 acres (24 km2) were inherited in 1989 by Anthony Barbour, making him one of the largest landowners in Cheshire.

He developed the estate as a centre for small businesses, restoring redundant buildings and modernising its 16 farms, thereby supporting some 800 jobs.

[12][13][14] Today Bolesworth is known for hosting a variety of major equestrian, family and action sports events both on-site and around the country.
