Tern Hall was built on the site shortly after 1700. Attingham Park was created in the late-18th-century. The new hall was built in 1785, and Tern Hall was demolished. Thomas Leggatt planted some tree clumps in the park in the 1770s. Humphry Repton produced a Red Book in 1798 and his proposals were largely implemented.
