Visited the hall with @woopashoopaa @Telf and vulex, very nice this one. Even though you here voices while inside the back part is still live and used for the club house for the golf club. Some nice features still remain.so here's a bit of history I managed to dig up and a few pics...
Cornist Hall was once the residence of the Sumners family who founded and owned the steel works at Shotton on Deeside, five or six miles away from Flint. Today the Hall has been turned into the local Golf Club's club-house, and part of it is used for wedding receptions and similar functions. It was used as a restaurant for a short time but failed to make money. The grounds of the Hall form the nine hole golf course and park.
Many men from Flint once worked at the steel works, today most have been made redundant. It seems slightly ironic that they should spend their time playing golf on the land of the man who was once their employer.
