Keele Hall is a 19th-century mansion house at Keele, Staffordshire, England, now standing on the campus of Keele University and serving as the university conference centre. It is a Grade II* listed building.
The manor of Keele was purchased by the Sneyd family in 1544, a Staffordshire gentry family who held the mayoralty of the borough of Newcastle-under-Lyme several times as well as lands in nearby Audley and Bradwell. In about 1580 Ralph Sneyd built a large gabled Tudor style house there. The family prospered as coal and iron owners and also brick and tile manufacturers. During the English Civil War, Keele Hall was briefly instrumental is providing an asylum for King Charles II after the Battle of Worcester in 1651. As royalist supporters, following the final Parliamentarian victory, the Sneyd family were heavily fined.
