Built in 1840-2 to the designs of Thomas Trubshaw at the expense of the Earl of Shrewsbury. The design was described by Pevsner as "architectural roguery" [ The Buildings of England: Staffordshire (1974), p.229] and by Colvin as displaying "a perverse originality" [ A biographical dictionary of British architects, 1600-1840 (3rd edn., 1995), p.995], perhaps somewhat unexpectedly since Trubshaw was a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries.
