Greatford

Greatford Hall was a manor house built by Queen Elizabeth I in the 16th century. The most famous use of Greatford Hall was as the home and private asylum for Dr. Francis Willis, an accomplished physician whose art was treatment of illustrious patients. It was he who cured King George III of his madness at Greatford Hall in 1788. In 1930, Greatford Hall burned down and was subsequently rebuilt in a similar style to the original.
