ABOUT BISHTON HALL
Stunning Georgian mansion and grounds
Situated within beautiful landscaped gardens in Staffordshire, Bishton Hall, a grade II* listed Georgian Mansion, creates the perfect backdrop for your own unique celebration.
History of Bishton Hall
Bishton Hall circa 1830
Though the current house dates back to the mid-18th century, circa 1750, parts of it are older. There has long been a structure on the site and Bishton was mentioned in the Domesday book of 1086.
Bishton Hall is a Grade II* listed building. The house with its ivy-clad façade, 17 bedrooms, three principal front rooms, library, servants’ quarters, orangery, parterre filled with roses and Temple Garden featuring one of the best Doric screens in the country, combine to create quintessential old English grandeur.
A handful of important families have lived at the hall through the centuries. Among them are three former High Sheriffs of Staffordshire - John Sneyd, Cecil Stafford Northcote and John Sparrow. The latter was a lawyer and magistrate who purchased Bishton around 1776.
Charlotte Sparrow
One of our favourite residents was John Sparrow’s daughter, Charlotte. Philanthropy, happiness and education are three words that will always be associated with magnificent Georgian mansion Bishton Hall - and all three are epitomised by Miss Charlotte Sparrow.
Elegant, beautiful and born in 1786, Charlotte called Bishton Hall at Wolseley Bridge, Staffordshire, home for her entire life, living there until she died at the age of 90 in 1876.
Charlotte’s youthful portrait captures her in her prime, porcelain skin surrounded by gentle brown curls. But behind the feminine demeanour was a steely resolve.
It’s thought she never married to ensure Bishton remained in her family at a time when, upon taking wedding vows, a wife’s inheritance immediately passed to her husband.
Instead, Charlotte avoided matrimony and devoted her energies to helping others. Thanks to her kindness, she is still remembered with fondness to this day.
Every year on her birthday, May 17, the pupils of Staffordshire’s Colwich School hold a celebration to honour her. That’s because Charlotte founded their school in 1827.
She believed all children deserved an education so took it upon herself to open a school, paying for everything herself - teachers’ salaries, books, materials and repairs. The total costs for a year came to £180.
At the time few schools for poor children existed. In 1818, John Pounds set up a school and began teaching poor children reading, writing, and arithmetic and in 1820, Samuel Wilderspin opened the first infant school in Spitalfields.
But Miss Sparrow was not far behind them. She wanted to help her community and made practical plans to do so.
In the meantime, Bishton Hall itself, the epitome of English country house splendour, was transformed thanks to Charlotte. Around 1820, shortly after her father’s death, she added the east and west wings of the house.
She must also have witnessed a mysterious addition to property’s gardens. Built in the first half of the 19th century, they are home to a central fluted Doric screen, one of the largest and finest of its kind in the UK - possibly the world.
However, it’s not known who commissioned the magnificent structure or why. The Doric screen is thought to date back to around 1830. This was a time when wealthy land owners and aristocrats routinely went on a Grand Tour of Europe and came back inspired by the wonders of Athens, Rome and Paris.
Modern day
In 1954 the Stafford-Northcote’s opened St Bede’s school at Bishton Hall. It remained a school until 2018.
Though its school days are over, antiques continue to grace Bishton’s rooms following the purchase of the property by Hansons Auctioneers in 2019.
Charles Hanson, owner of Hansons, is a man passionate about history. As well as being spellbound by the period grandeur of Bishton Hall, he believes the mansion is the perfect place to showcase antiques.
For the first time in its history, the hall is now be open to the public. Historical grandeur and antiques have come together to deliver a new chapter in this splendid period property’s fascinating story - one that everyone can enjoy.

[@floydeckler1056]

Bravo guys and honestly You could not ask for a better collab team than Haunted Finders, as they hold the same moral standards and are nice guys too boot! Apparently the spirits sensed they found a crew that they could have a little fun with so you must have eased them right off the rip.

[@GhostsOnTrent]

Thank you Floyd really appreciate it 👍 we absolutely loved working with haunted finders they are great guys and we can't wait to work with them again

[@andysuber941]

11:58 heard something that sounded either like a cat or a child

[@itallia666]

I enjoyed this one as id seen the Haunted Finders video which also produced good results I didnt like Barbaras attitude towards the spirits, too loud too demanding & not many manners. David from H. Finders has a very nice way with the spirits, is gentle & respectful, he doesn't Provoke them. If alot of children are in spirit then hearing barbara's rough commanding voice would frighten them. Shes condescending & patronising which doesn't encourage spirits to communicate! Good Lord she sounds like a lawyer giving a witness the 2nd degree! No wonder the spirit gets annoyed with the yelling Barb ! She needs to listen to Davids approach! Anyway thanks guys 🇬🇧👧

[@GhostsOnTrent]

Hi Italia, thank you for your feedback 🙂 Barbara is no longer with us now, we hope you enjoy the rest of our videos 👍

[@itallia666]

@@GhostsOnTrent Thank you for replying guys I honestly felt rotten after sending you that comment & it was no slur against yourselves! I agree with all the comments from the others who praise your Professional approach, staying silent & letting spirit speak & no shinanigans & drama queen antics when something happens I think every team has its pro's & con's, i like your no nonsense approach & using as natural as possible methods. Some investigators have so much paraphernalia, it confuses the audience so must be doubly so for the spirits. I DO think your teaming up with Haunted Finders is a good one & David Carsdale is such a lovely man with a genuine affection & concern for those departed souls Hes a joy to watch. The banter & hearty guffaws you all have is also a great quality & makes us all sitting at home, share your fun. Ok, there are drama queens but underneath they are very receptive to spirit & add to the spectacular results as a whole group effort. I do sometimes have a very small problem with picking up responses from spirit & think maybe your microphone isnt as powerful as it could be & my headphones may need replacing to better hear what you record which is better when you enhance the volumn. That aside i love you camera work & lighting, its 1st class & together, you have a great rapport. Im assuming you're brothers which magnifies your receptability to the spirit world. Your a great team & ive enjoyed your videos immensely 🤗 You have a great future & can only go from strength to strength! Well done guys, i hope Barbara is ok & sort of learns to have more respect & understanding for spirit, but I wish her well. Regards to both of you 🇬🇧👧

[@RedCedar]

Now, if only you had a deck of cards the spirits could show you some real tricks

[@traceypotts9425]

My thoughts are who's the scary man eater?

[@GhostsOnTrent]

Hi Tracey. I wish you were more vague with the comments so we could respond easily to them.

I just heard moaning 4:23pm

[@regwatson2017]

Sorry but you shouldn't trust other people's gear - too easy for it to be modified and remotely operated. I am very suspicious of the amount of results obtained here with their gear when you normally get sweet fa.
