Hale House was built by Thomas Archer, Groom Porter to Queen Anne, and Baroque architect, who bought the manor of Hale sometime after 1712. He demolished an Elizbethan mansion which had been designed by John Webb for the Penruddock family. The house was designed and built by Archer around 1715.[3] It was remodelled around 1792 by the architect Henry Holland.[3] Other alterations were made in the early and late 19th century, by the Goff family, who owned Hale Park from 1837 until the early 20th century.
The house has two storeys and seven bay-windows at the front. It has cement rendered walls, a portico with pediment and Corinthian columns, and a slate roof. The service wings flank the house but are detached. They also are of two storeys, with cement rendered walls and slate roofs.
It is now a Grade I listed building. The house is in private ownership and is not open to the public.

On the Hawaiian island of O’ahu’s northwestern side is the town of Hale’iwa and in Hale’iwa Beach Park right by Waialua Bay is white obelisk the Waialua-Kahuku War Memorial. This memorial pays homage to the local veterans that lost their live in World War II, the Korean War and the Viet Nam war. Of the 16 names of fallen soldiers inscribed on the monument for the Second World War, 14 were of Japanese decent demonstrative of how diverse the makeup of the United States Army was during that horrific conflict. Yes I know that quite a lot a lens flare but I like the flared effect particularly because of the avian photo-bomb! - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #olympustoughtg4 @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany @kehcamera @oahu_hawaiii @visit.hawaii #usaprimeshot #tamractales
The Lighthouse was built in 1906 by John Arthur Saner ( Civil Engineer ) replacing the original 1838 octagonal structure, The light was discontinued in 1958 Owing to a decline in shipping and the Lighthouse was sold for £1, 100 pounds, the building remains in use as a private residence. The optic from the Lighthouse is now in the Merseyside Maritime Museum
Another from the depths of the hard drive.
Shot through a Celestron 6 inch Newtonian telescope and a Canon F1-n loaded with some sort of flim, no idea what,
I'm not certain of the actual name of this building but is sits on the promontory jutting out into the Mersey River before Runcorn and opposite Frodsham. Now in private hands it was obviously used to help navigation up the river. Nice to get a really sunny day! The weather up north has been very overcast so far this spring.
