Bramall Hall is a manor house in the village of Bramhall, in Greater Manchester, England. Largely Tudor in design, its oldest parts date from the 14th century, with additions from the 16th and 19th centuries. It is a notable example of the timber-framed buildings found throughout the historic county of Cheshire. The house functions as a museum and its 70 acres (28 ha) of landscaped parkland are open to the public.
