Halecroft is a Grade II* listed building in Hale, a village in the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford in Greater Manchester, England. The building was designed by the architect Edgar Wood as part of a speculative development commissioned by J. Richardson, and was built in 1890; it is an example of Wood's work influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement.[1][2] It is one of eleven Grade II* listed buildings in Trafford.[3]
Halecroft is a two-storey building with a single-storey extension added in the 20th century.[4] It uses timber framing, carved wood, pargeting and tile hanging.[2] One of the craftsmen involved was James Lenegan.[5] The windows have mullions and transoms; Clare Hartwell and coauthors write that there are "some interesting touches" to the window design, particularly noting a dormer window featuring a "tiered cap".[2]
As of February 2025[update], Halecroft is the head office of Britannia Hotels.[6]
