After Rev Baldwin's death in 1793, the house passed to his eldest son, Thomas Baldwin, who then sold the house and surrounding land in 1800.Extensive additions were made to it in the 19th century including an elaborate cast iron conservatory. The conservatory was not designed by Thomas Harrison in about 1820, as some have stated. He in fact designed the one at Hoole House. The Hoole Hall conservatory does not appear in illustrations until after 1850.

The west wing has two storeys, is symmetrical, sits on a stone plinth, and has rusticated quoins.
