Kirklinton Hall and Gardens

            Thursday Market at the ever magical Kirklinton Hall and gardens

Located next to the 12th century de Boyville castle, Kirklinton Hall is probably built from its stone. Construction began around 1670 and the hall was extended in the 1870’s. It finally fell in to ruin in the 1970’s.

Kirklinton Hall been many things in it's lifetime, starting as a family owned restoration great house, it has also been a wartime RAF officers mess, a school for refugees, apartments, hotel, and 'The Border Country Club' which was a hotel, nightclub, and casino. Famous bands played in it's glass floored ballroom, and the casino saw infamous visitors like the Kray twins.

The atmospheric ruins now hint at the people who have walked before you, Norman knights, cavalier commanders, Victorian plutocrats, RAF officers, and London gangsters. 

Kirklinton Hall and its gardens are now being restored by the Boyle family to its former glory, a fascinating process. 

It is also available for weddings and special events.
