Nocton Hall

Local resident Jilly Burr, saw the article above and forwarded the link to me saying: "Found this in the news and thought about the Hall".

I have published much information about the history of Nocton Hall in my blog over the years.  The most comprehensive record however, is contained in the excellent publication: 'Nocton Hall - Revelations of an Imp' by Douglas Craven-Hodgson.  You may want to click on the link as it is a fascinating read.

Please note there are many other entries about Nocton Hall - but you will need to scroll through the Index to locate these separately.
