Killingworth Hall


Killingworth Hall, is a large residence on West Lane in Killingworth Village. The Hall was the historical home of the Killingworth family. It was rebuilt in c.1765. The estate was purchased by John Williams, who had built up iron and glass businesses. He died in 1763 and his son, also John, sold the house for 8,000 guineas in 1767, to the wholesale grocer George Colpitts. In 1825 a Miss Tate ran the Hall as a boarding school.[1] Today it is a residential dwelling.
