On George Green-Emmott's death in 1876 the estate passed to his son Walter Egerton John Green-Emmott, who had married Kathleen Vereker in 1896. After her death in 1939 the hall was used as a military barracks, after which it was left empty and deteriorated beyond repair. It was demolished in 1967. The estate is still in the hands of the family, the current proprietor is Peter Douglas Edward Emmott Mackellar. The family no longer reside in Lancashire.
