Guyzance Hall


Guyzance Hall is located by the River Coquet, to the south-east of the village of Guyzance in Northumberland. In 1892, J.D. Milburn, who was an industrial entrepreneur and ship owner from Newcastle, bought the Barnhill estate and much of Guyzance. He commissioned Newcastle architect W.H. Knowles, to convert and extend Barnhill Farm (an 18th century building) into a neo-Tudor style country house. The original farmhouse was restyled as the west wing of the much larger building, completed in 1905.[1] The residence became known as Guyzance Hall. Large gardens were also developed around the residence. A tower was added to the hall c.1920.[2] Guyzance Hall is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England.
