 | Eveleigh Bradford talks about Red Hall. Red Hall, built 1628, housed the captured King Charles I when he was brought through Leeds in 1647 as a prisoner. This ancient house survived into the 20th century and for 50 years was part of Schofield’s department store, until demolition in the 1960s to make way for their new flagship store.
