Carrycoats Hall & Garden

  • Description

    "Open for just two days a year to fundraise money for the local church, the gardens are rather fabulous on a small scale in comparison to the big estates of Northumberland. That said the Carrycoats Estate included "Carrycoats Hall and several farms. The entire estate was offered for sale at auction on 5 September 1877. The estate then produced £935 per annum, not including £49 for the leasing of a colliery and not including the value of the residence. It was mainly pasture, with four "compact occupations" (farm complexes).The estate was stated to be nearly 1,800 acres, and four miles from Bellingham."" Photo by Matthew Hatton, 2019.
