Waddow Hall was built by the Tempest family during the Tudor period,[3] and the estate and lands remained in the Tempest family until 1657, when Richard Tempest died in a debtors' prison.[4] Following Richard Tempest's death in prison, the land and buildings of the Waddow estate were acquired in 1658 by Christopher Wilkinson of Clitheroe, an out-bailiff and later a Member of Parliament. Wilkinson bequeathed the estate and buildings to his nephew John Weddell of Widdington in 1693 (rather than to his own son whom he suspected of popery) and the property remained in the Weddell family until 1778, when Thomas Weddell bequeathed them to Sir John Ramsden.[4] Waddow remained in the Ramsden family until the mid-1800s, when it was sold to William Garnett by Sir John Ramsden, 5th Baronet. The Girl Guides Association rented the Estate between 1927 and 1928, using it as an activity centre, and purchased it for £9,000 from William Garnett's son on 16 October 1928.[4] During the Second World War the estate was lent to Lancashire County Council, and served as an isolation hospital for children.[4][5]{{-}} HauntingAccording to local folklore the estate is haunted by the ghost of O'Nell, a former servant at the hall, who was either murdered by her mistress, or died in an accidental fall. The legend suggests that O'Nell was sent to fetch water from a well, when her mistress cast a spell on her, causing her to slip and die, or had expressed the wish that she fall.[6][7] In November 2004 the British paranormal reality television show Most Haunted broadcast an episode from Waddow Hall.[8] See also{{portal|Lancashire}}
