Hindlip Hall

A timber-framed manor house originally occupied site, replaced in 1572 by a
large brick building. This was destroyed by fire in 1820 and the present
structure was built for Viscount Southwell. He died in 1860 and the house
was sold to Henry Allsopp, a brewery magnate, made first Baron Hindlip in
1886 and who undertook the pavilion alterations. In the early C20 the Allsopp
family moved to Wiltshire and the estate was sold to Worcestershire County
Council in 1947. It has been the headquarters of the West Mercia Constabulary
since 1967.
