Broughton Hall is a Gothic house at Yew Tree Lane West Derby, Liverpool, England, built in 1860 for Gustav Christian Schwabe, a Liverpool merchant originating from Hamburg. The conservatory added between 1870 and 1880 is of special interest.

The house was used as a preparatory school run by Roman Catholic nuns, but now Broughton Hall High School is an all-girls Roman Catholic comprehensive school with boys in the sixth form.[1]
