Haddon Hall

Haddon Hall, an old English baronial mansion, the seat successively of Avenells, Vernons, and the Rutland family, stands on a slope overlooking the Wye in Derbyshire, 23 miles NNW. of Derby. The styles of architecture range from Norman to the 16th century. Reference is made to it in Scott's Peveril of the Peak. See two works with illustrations by Cattermole (1846-67); S. C. Hall's Haddon Hall (1871); Quarterly Review (1890); and Haddon Hall, illust. by W. E. Cooke (1892).
