Minster Lovell Hall is a fifteenth-century manor house founded by William, 1st Viscount Lovell, situated in the parish of Minster Lovell in Oxfordshire. The hall stands as a significant example of late medieval domestic architecture, with substantial remains including the distinctive dovecote and fragments of the main residential ranges that survive from its original construction period. The site represents an important record of aristocratic life during the later fifteenth century, a period of considerable building activity among the English nobility. The hall fell into decline following the attainder of its owner Francis, Viscount Lovell, in 1488, and the surviving structures now form a scheduled monument and are in the care of English Heritage.
