Clowes Park (also known as Broughton Hall)

Introduction

Broughton Old Hall and park were bounded by Bury Old Road to the north and east and Manchester Road to the west. Broughton New Hall was also on the same site and associated with the Old Hall within a wooded area roughly central to the park. There was a large lake and boat house and a probable kitchen garden. The site survives in part. Remaining features include a lake and some open land, which survives as Clowes Park in the centre of the houses which now occupy the area.
