The Coat of Arms Room

Located in the oldest part of the hall - the East Wing - this small room houses the nationally significant plaster panel depicting the Coat of Arms of the Radclyffe family.

This room was added to the original East Wing sometime in the late 1500s. We are not sure what it was originally used for, but it would probably have been one of the private chambers of the Radclyffe family until the 1650s.

Highlights of this room include:

  • The armorial panel made from hand moulded lime plaster dating from the 1500s
  • Interactive heraldry jigsaw
  • Arts and craft style green and cream wallpaper on the east wall
  • Roof viewing panel on stairwell leading from the Coat of Arms Room to the Great Chamber
