History
Broomhill is a grade 'B' listed house which was constructed for Sir Alfred Booth (Cunard lines) in 1915. In 1924, the Aspin family, who were related to the Mitchell family from Glasgow, purchased the house and in 1938 commissioned the original architects, the highly acclaimed Arthur Forman Balfour Paul and Sir Basil Spence to extend the house, incorporating a magnificent barrel-vaulted music room.
The future
The present owners preserve the country house for next generations and will cherish its unique character.
