Brooksby Hall

Brooksby Hall is a 16th century Leicestershire manor house in 3.2 square kilometres (800 acres) of land between Leicester and Melton Mowbray and is 13 kilometres (9 miles) northeast of Leicester.

It was the home of Admiral Beatty. Whilst the hall is now used for weddings, the rest of the estate forms part of the merged Brooksby Melton Agricultural College.
