Historians believe Hitler would have based himself at the Hall, which is just seven miles away from tourist town Bridgenorth, Shropshire, had his plans to invade the UK been successful.

The Gothic revival house has four bedrooms, features exposed brickwork and crucifix windows, as well as panoramic views of the estate.

The castle boasts 17 acres of communal parkland, comprises four floors, and has its own turret – with an impressive tower clock included.

Experts believe the dictator was drawn to the property’s beauty, and think he would have taken an interest in the Hall as it is geographically in the middle of England, and close to an airbase.

It is believed Hitler planned to invade Britain in 1940, and did a great deal of research into the area, intending to set up a camp at the property.

Speaking on the castle, estate agent Scott Kemsley said: "This is a very unique and well-presented property, situated within a courtyard, with fantastic parkland walks.

"The facilities of Bridgenorth and Telford are both within an easy commute, as are the major road networks."
