This page now need some serious work to be encyclopedic, there suddenly seem to be a lot of new editors on the page which is great, so I am reluctant to edit out others contributions, (apart from link to Roman Abramovich which truly - come on be serious - was nothing to do with Eaton Hall. On a more serious note:
1: " This was probably the most expensive building project ever on an English country house, costing six hundred thousand pounds" Probably - was it, or was it not?
2: "he was a duke by the time the work was finished" when , where and why, one was not made a Duke for building a house.
3: Nice pictures but arranged like that , they look like container ends in a mortuary. Giano | talk 20:54, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
New Pictures: I was wondering if anyone who has the ability to visit the gardens could snap a few good photos of the new estate. The renovations/demolition (crimes) have altered it quite a bit...
Holt Castle became the source of much of the stone for Eaton Hall during the 1675 to 1683 building phase [1] by Thomas Grosvenor- If someone would like to let me know what photographs are required, I can get some pictures - but it's a private estate and I might have to write to the estate's office to gain access (Unless there's some kind of open day). -- Joopercoopers 16:36, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Interior Layout: If anyone is good at reading architectural plans, Eaton Hall's before and after it's renovation in the 1989 are on the Cheshire West and Chester Council website here — Preceding unsigned comment added by ManceAnon ( talk • contribs) 05:15, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
I am planning to nominate this article for GA so I should be grateful for any helpful comments, identification of glitches, etc before I expose it to GAN. Thanks.-- Peter I. Vardy ( talk) 10:37, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

I suspect, that given the timing, the close association between the prince of Wales, and both the Percy Thomas Partnership (see Poundbury/Trumpton) and the Duke, that the reason lies in the general debate going on at the time, after Charlie's 'monstrous carbuncle' speech and subsequent ' A Vision of Britain' (oo - a red link!) publication (1989). Giano, it's not impossible anything else could be considered. You know conservation doesn't work that way - 'sympathy' can, and frequently does, also mean 'contrast'. -- Joopercoopers ( talk) 10:57, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
There's a little material on the interior layout & furnishing of the Dennys Hall in de Figueiredo & Treuherz -- would you like me to have a go at adding it? The book seems to have been published (1988) before the recasing, so it has no information on the current layout, but I assume it's similar. The book also has a 1740 engraving of the Samwell Hall which I could scan if it would be useful. It's a lot better of the house than the existing engraving but doesn't show the earlier moated house, which might be why you're not including it. Espresso Addict ( talk) 09:52, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, copy edit and comment. I did consider using an infobox, but which one? The article hardly mentions the present house, and there was a progression of earlier houses, each of which was more notable than the current one. This is an unusual situation for a Cheshire "stately home", in that the house hardly figures; the article is more about the gardens and the surrounding estate and estate buildings. Hence IMO, in this case, an infobox would probably be more of a hindrance than a help. I should welcome comments on this from others.-- Peter I. Vardy ( talk) 16:22, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
