Gisborough Hall

Gisborough Hall is a 19th-century mansion house, now a hotel, at Guisborough, Redcar and Cleveland, England. It is a Grade II listed building. The manor of Gisborough and the site of the dissolved Priory of Gisborough were acquired after the Dissolution of the Monasteries by Sir Thomas Chaloner in about 1558. He built a new manor house adjacent to the Priory ruins. His grandson was Sir William Chaloner, Bt. The manor house was demolished in the early 19th century when the family moved to Long Hull. In 1842 Admiral Thomas Chaloner inherited the estate and in 1856 created the present mansion house. The design of the hall is attributed to William Milford Teulon by Historic England, though his elder brother, Samuel Sanders Teulon is listed as the architect by the 1966 North Yorkshire edition of the Pevsner Architectural Guides. The house, in Jacobean style, presents a main south front of two stories and attics behind balustrades, with seven bays, the central and two end bays being canted and gabled. On his death without issue, the Admiral left the estate to his great-nephew Richard Godolphin Walmesley Long (younger brother of Viscount Long) who in 1888 changed his surname to Chaloner. He was created Baron Gisborough in 1917 and died at the Hall in 1938. The family lived in the Hall until the Second World War when it was requisitioned by the Army. After the war, it was leased to N
