A house originally known as Allerton Lodge, but later Allerton Priory, was built on the property in the early 1800s for William Rutson, a Liverpool merchant. In 1866 John Grant Morris, a colliery owner, bought the estate and commissioned architect Alfred Waterhouse to rebuild the house.
In 1897 a Monsignor Nugent founded a House of Providence , which was run by nuns as a refuge for unmarried Irish girls. In 1915, the Sisters established a School for Special Educational Needs . It was temporary certified 18 May 1916 for 15 girls, then re-certified in 1917 as Allerton Priory Special Industrial School for mentally defective girls under 15. It ceased to be a Home Office school in 1933. The Nuns owned the property until 1986.
