Description
One of the walled Gardens in Alkincoates park in Colne Lancashire
Alkincoats Hall was a country house in Colne, Lancashire, England. Alkincoats was once an estate owned by the de Alkincoats family which in 1570 comprised several estates held by John Parker, a descendant of the de Alkincoats, and James de Walton. It was the home of a branch of the Parker family of Browsholme, who were park keepers for the King's forest of Bowland. Originally built in the north of the estate in 1575, the hall was enlarged in 1720 and demolished in 1957. Part of the estate in which the hall stood is now the 35 acre Alkincoats public park
