Tushingham Hall is a country house in Tushingham, Cheshire, England. Formerly a moated farmhouse, it was remodelled in the early 19th century for Daniel Vawdrey, retaining many 17th-century features. It is constructed in rendered brick with slate roofs. Its architectural style is Tudor Revival. The house is in two storeys with a symmetrical entrance front. The centre of the front is recessed and contains a canted open porch with three Tudor arches. Above this is a mullioned window containing two sashes. On each side is a similar window in both storeys, those in the upper storey being smaller than those below. Above the window over the porch is a shaped gable containing a wreath, and the rest of the front is crenellated. The interior contains a 17th-century staircase originally in Dearnford Hall, Staffordshire. The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.
