This is the Hall that was built after the dissolution of the abbey. Some of it is still lived in but a lot of the bottom floor is open and you can see exhibitions about the whole estate. At one point, it was not the main hall in the estate but its successor, Studley Hall, was destroyed in a fire so the original hall remains. It has appeared on TV as well for exterior scenes.

One of our favourite places to visit and on this occasion we went to the floodlight event 😀 It was amazing 😀😀

Beautiful period building which can be paid to enter as an added extra on your day visit. A grand entrance opens into a welcoming hall which also has a great armed forces memorial relating to the world wars. A little small compared to a grand period mansion but worth a visit.

I really like the outside of the hall, and the exhibition on the training camp the family set up for young men from depressed areas during the great depression was very interesting. Some more information on the hall and the family would also have been nice though. For example who was living in the house before the family moved there when their other property burnt down? How did the family adapt to their new smaller residence? Was anything saved from the other property and brought with them? This house clearly has lots of stories to tell. A perennial problem of the National Trust is their view that every property needs a collection of furniture, and that properties without this are only fit for use as offices or holiday homes. Some houses are interesting in themselves.
