Hartforth Hall

Hartforth Hall edit

Hartforth Hall is a Grade II* listed country house. It was built in 1744 for William Cradock of Gilling, who had bought the manor of Hartforth in 1720. Additions were made in 1792 and c. 1900.[2] It passed to Sheldon Cradock, MP for Camelford, whose grandson, Rear Admiral Christopher Cradock, was born at Hartforth in 1862 and who died at the Battle of Coronel.[3] The property was operated as a hotel and wedding venue from 1986 to 2017, but the hotel is now permanently closed.[4]
