Burn Hall is a country house in County Durham. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
History
Around 1812, Bryan John Salvin of Croxdale purchased a manor house, dating back to the 13th century, called New Burnhall. Ignatius Bonomi redesigned it from 1821 to 1834 in the gothic and neoclassical style under the name Burn Hall.[1] It remained in the Salvin family until Marmaduke Henry Salvin died in 1924 and it was acquired by Saint Joseph's Missionary Society of Mill Hill which established a boys' school there.[2]
The seminary closed to full time students in 1995 when the costs of training priests became prohibitive.[3] The restoration of the main house and the redevelopment of the area to the rear by Jane Darbyshire Associates won the City Trust's architectural commendation of the year in 1998.[4]
