Sockburn Hall

[1] As at 2008, both the Hall and adjoining Grade II coach house were listed by English Heritage on the Buildings at Risk Register, as was the adjacent ruined Grade I Church of All Saints.

The Manor of Sockburn was for many years in antiquity the home of the Conyers family, known, inter alia, for the legend of the Sockburn Worm.

In the late 17th century the estate was purchased by the Blackett family.

The present house was built to replace the old manor for the occupation of Henry Collingwood Blackett (third son of Sir William Blackett, 5th Baronet) in about 1834 in a neo Jacobean architecture, with three bays, two storeys and attics above and shaped gables.

the current owners have begun a restoration project.
