Moreby Hall

Moreby Hall is a Grade II*-listed early 19th-century manor house and estate in Stillingfleet, North Yorkshire, England, on the River Ouse.

[2] A 1907 profile on Moreby Hall in Country Life magazine states that, "The township anciently contained two carucates of land held of the King in capite by knight's service and a sixpenny rent severally.

Now we read the quaint record that Moreby is held of the Crown by the service of rendering a red rose when the Sheriff may demand it.

Stillingfleet's church, St Helen's, includes a memorial to John Acclom of Moreby (d. 1611), and of his wife, Isabel.

[1] In 1814, Henry Preston married Maria, the eldest daughter of Joshua Compton of Esholt Hall in Yorkshire.

[5] Moreby Hall was Salvin's second major country house in the Tudor style, which Pevsner notes is "highly accomplished work for one not yet thirty."
