Huntroyde Hall is a grade II listed, 16th-century house in the civil parish of Simonstone in the Borough of Ribble Valley, Lancashire, England. Its estate, Huntroyde Demesne (known locally as 'Huntroyde'), once extended to over 6,500 acres.
Huntroyde Hall is reputed to stand on the site of a hunting lodge once owned by John O' Gaunt.[1] The Huntroyde Hall Estate came to the Starkie family by marriage in circa.1464. The first recorded house was constructed on an H-shaped plan in 1576 for the Starkie family[2] and re-built in the Georgian style in the mid-19th century. Wings added to the west side in 1777 and 1850 have since been demolished. The remaining part of the house was re-faced in ashlar sandstone in 1885.[3] Huntroyde Hall features a Grade II listed Ha-Ha, one of the longest in the North of England.[4]
History
Huntroyde Hall
A hall was built for Edmund Starkie in 1576.Шаблон:Efn It is thought to have been of a typical design for the period, approximately Шаблон:Convert wide and of two storeys with a central hall, and mullioned windows. Wings at both ends projected Шаблон:Convert at the front and rear. The central hall was about Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert with entrances at either end of a passageway at its western side.Шаблон:Sfn
In 1631 a gatehouse was constructed aligned to the northern entrance,Шаблон:Efn and a full width walled courtyard about Шаблон:Convert deep was created. A plan from 1777 shows further alterations. An extension was built along the eastern side and the courtyard had a stable block and other outbuildings. The northwest projection had been widened to incorporate a staircase in the hall and a new south-facing entrance in the north-west corner. The old south entrance was replaced by a window and a larger doorway into the hall was located centrally.Шаблон:Sfn
The plan documents the major building program commenced for Le Gendre Starkie (c.1735–1792).Шаблон:Efn In 1777 a wing was constructed extending Шаблон:Convert west from the south-west corner of the building. It was constructed in the Georgian style in ashlar sandstone with sash windows and a hipped roof.Шаблон:Sfn Alterations were made to the west end of the old hall to connect it to the new. Around 1789 the old outbuildings were replaced with a servants' wing, fully enclosing that side of the courtyard. The exterior was given ornamental battlements and sash windows replacements.Шаблон:Sfn In early 19th century images of the hall is another wing extending west from the 1777 extension. It mirrors the old hall and added balance when viewed from the south. This wing was replaced in 1850. The new building contained a library, entrance hall supported by marble pillars and a smoking room.Шаблон:Sfn
In 1879 a range of stores and offices was erected to the north side of the old courtyard, incorporating a 2nd gatehouse to the south.Шаблон:EfnШаблон:Sfn Between 1885 and 1888, the old building underwent further restoration, the front was refaced in ashlar, the sash windows replaced with larger mullions. The north side was largely rebuilt including a first floor billiards room.Шаблон:Sfn
The house was partially demolished in 1969 and 1970 to reduce it to a more manageable size and was sold in 1983.[3]
The estate is private but corporate events such as simulated game shooting and clay pigeon shooting are held in the grounds. The estate is fragmented by public footpaths, roads and farms. The gatehouse or lodge to the hall, known as Arbory Hall, is in Arbory Drive, Padiham near the cricket field.[5] It was built in 1790 and is now a private residence.[6]

In 1465, Edmund Starkie of Barnton near Northwich in Cheshire married Elizabeth de Simonstone the heiress of the land at Huntroyde.Шаблон:Sfn
In 1578 Nicholas Starkie (born c.1566), son and heir of Edmund, the builder of Huntroyde married Anne Parr, the heiress of estates at Kempnough in WorsleyШаблон:Sfn and Cleworth Hall in TyldesleyШаблон:Sfn that in 1596 was associated with witchcraft. His son John (1584–1665) inherited the estate in 1618 and went on to become one of the Chief Justices of the Peace in Lancashire and Sheriff of Lancaster. His eldest son Nicholas, a captain in the Parliamentary army, inherited but was killed in 1643 by the gunpowder explosion at the siege of Hoghton Tower. In 1651 an estate was purchased at Kearsley, south of Bolton.Шаблон:Sfn Nicholas' son John was High Sheriff of Lancashire in 1656 and died in 1676. He had married Alice Norris in 1654 and through her inherited Hall i' th' Wood in Bolton. The estate passed to John's son John and then to John jnr's son Piers.

The Starkie's were major landowners in Heyhouses (now part of Sabden) from at least 1787 and in 1801 Le Gendre Piers Starkie purchased the remaining portion. Шаблон:Sfn Over Pendleton Moor, Little Pendleton was purchased in 1807 and Wymondhouses in two lots in 1809 and 1811.Шаблон:Sfn Both these estates neighbour Coldcoats.
The estate was then inherited by the latter's son Le Gendre Starkie (1790–1822), High Sheriff in 1815 and after his early death by his younger brother Le Gendre Nicholas Starkie (1799–1865), Member of Parliament for Pontefract from 1826 to 1832 and a prominent Freemason, being Provincial Grand Master for the Western Division of Lancashire. His son, Le Gendre Nicholas Starkie (1828–1899), was High Sheriff in 1868 and MP for Clitheroe from 1853 to 1856. Also a prominent Freemason, he was Provincial Grand Master for the Eastern Division of Lancashire from 1870 to 1899.[7] In 1876 Kempnough Hall was sold to the Bridgewater Trustees.Шаблон:Sfn Rogerstead was sold to the Bolton Corporation in 1879, becoming one of the town's cemeteries.Шаблон:Sfn Hall i' th' Wood was sold in 1899,Шаблон:Sfn becoming a museum.
He left the estate to his son Edmund Arthur Le Gendre Starkie (1871–1958).[2] Edmund served as Captain in the Boer War and was a local promoter of the Red Cross and St John's Ambulance Brigade and by 1914 had developed parts of the Huntroyde grounds into a major tree plantation.[8] He allowed Huntroyd to be used as a hospital for convalescent soldiers during the First World War.[2] After Edmund's death in 1958, the estate passed to his nephew, Guy Le Gendre Starkie (1909–1985).
