Description:The south front of Weston Hall. Weston Hall was built by Sir Thomas and Lady Wilbraham in 1671. Lady Wilbraham was believed to have been the architect but recent research indicates that William Taylor carried out the designs. In 1762 the Hall and Park passed to the Bridgeman family, later Earls of Bradford (second creation). Weston Park was landscaped by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown in the 1760s.
In 1986 the 7th Earl of Bradford gave the Hall and its grounds to the Weston Park Foundation. On 16 May 1998 the Hall hosted the G8 Summit of world leaders. Since 1999 the Park has hosted the annual 'V' music festival.
