Clarghyll Hall


Clarghyll Hall is a country house located about 2 miles north east of Alston in Cumbria, close to the county border with Northumberland. The house incorporates a 16th century bastle. It was heightened and extended to north in late 17th century for Nicholas Whitfield. It was further extended for Thomas Whitfield in the mid/late 18th century. The top floor of the tower, an east wing, and study-chapel (incorporating the remains of another bastle) were added in c.1860 by Rev. Octavius James who lived here 1847-89; (he also designed his church at Kirkhaugh). The study-chapel was partly destroyed by a fire in 1889, in which Rev. Octavius James died.[1] Clarghyll Hall is a Grade II* listed building on the National Heritage List for England.
