Grizedale Hall was a large country house at Grizedale, Hawkshead, in the Lake District in Lancashire, England. After two earlier Grizedale Halls had preceded, it was built anew in 1905 in the style of Gothic Revival architecture. During World War II it became No 1 Prisoner-of-war camp to hold German officers and was finally pulled down in 1957. The Hall’s history reflects the architectural trends of the early twentieth century and the wartime use of country estates in the Lake District. Its location in Grizedale, Ambleside, places it within the postal district LA 22, a rural area characterised by its scenic surroundings and historical heritage.
