Designations Grade II listed

Stoke Hall is a Grade II listed mansion on Stoke Hall Lane in the civil parish of Stoke in Cheshire East, England. The large L-shaped building dates originally from the early 17th century, but has a 19th-century appearance.[1][2] It is built from red brick, in Flemish Bond, with a slate roof.[3]

The hall originally belonged to the Minshull family, who owned the manor of Stoke in the 17th century.[1] A disused dovecote with a bell turret in the grounds of the hall dates from the late 18th century; it is also listed at grade II.[1][4]

The building was Grade II listed on 10 June 1952.[3] The hall gives its name to the lane from which it is accessed.
