Eglingham Hall

Henry Ogle (1600–1669), Deputy Lieutenant of Northumberland in 1644, was the representative for the county in the parliaments of 1653 and 1654.

The Hall was rebuilt in grander style for Robert Ogle in 1728, to a design including a seven-bay façade possibly by architect William Wakefield.

Nikolaus Pevsner noted that the rusticated quoins and doorway of Eglingham Hall showed the influence of Seaton Delaval Hall, and suggested that William Etty who had worked there might also have worked at Eglingham.

[1] Later improvements and alterations took place in 1780 and 1890 and an east wing was added in 1903 by Temple Wilson.

The Hall was sold to the Bewicke family early in the 20th century and their descendants remain resident.[when?
