Swarthmoor
Hall
|
 |
"Considering
the past, in light of present experience, to change the future"
Swarthmoor Hall is an Elizabethan manor house on the outskirts of
Ulverston. It was built in about 1586 as the family home of Judge
Thomas Fell, the then Chancellor to the Duchy of Lancaster.
In 1652 George Fox, founder of the Quakers, came to the hall,
convinced Thomas Fell and his wife, Margaret, of the truth of his
preaching and the hall became the cradle of the early Quaker
movement.
Swarthmoor Hall is still closely linked with Quakerism and was
purchased by the Religious Society of Friends in 1954 and
currently offers various residential and day courses and spiritual
retreats.
