Wiverton Hall (sometimes pronounced /ˈwiːərtən/) is an English country house near Tithby, Nottinghamshire in England.[1] By 1510 the former village of Wyverton had become impoverished and reduced to just four houses and a cottage. It was in that year completely depopulated by "emparkment", when George Chaworth enlarged his park by 254 acres (103 ha).[2] All but the Grade II* listed gatehouse of the mansion was destroyed in the English Civil War. The current house dates from 1814. The location is also the centre of a wider civil parish with the same name, which had 41 residents at the 2021 census.[3]
