Stratford upon Avon. Hall s Croft which belonged to Shakespere s daughter Susanna and her husband John Hall


Stratford upon Avon. Hall s former residence of Shakespeare's daughter Susanna, is situated in the Old Town area of Stratford, just a few metres away from Shakespeare's burial place at Holy Trinity Church. Susanna and her husband John Hall probably lived there after their marriage in 1607. John Hall (after whom the house is named) was a well-respected local family doctor. He ran a large medical practice treating many patients in the town and its vicinity, both rich and poor. The Tudor building is of interest other than its Shakespearian connections. The oldest section of the house dates from the early part of the 16th century. It was originally a small building with outhouses and was later enlarged to provide an imposing residence for the doctor.
