Mount Battenhall

Mount Battenhall has a rich history encompassing just over 150 years, and was once considered to be the finest Italianate mansion in Worcester. It was built for the Quaker Worcester clothier William Spriggs in c1865 and later aggrandised for the Hon Alfred Percy Allsopp of the brewing dynasty Allsopp & Sons in the 1890s.

In the First World War it was taken over by the Red Cross VAD, to care for injured soldiers returning from the Front, and later became a highly regarded Convent school which operated for over 80 years.
