Solberge Hall Hotel

Solberge Hall near Northallerton, North Yorkshire, England, is a wedding and events venue offering exclusive use to couples.

It remained in the Hutton family for about one hundred years and was then purchased by Benjamin Talbot the inventor.

After an extensive multi-million pound refurbishment and restoration programme, Solberge Hall is now a wedding and events venue set in a private estate in North Yorkshire.

[1] In 1812 when John was eight years old, his father died, leaving him and his sister Margaret in the care of their mother at Sober Gate.

John inherited the property when he came of age, and in 1821 he bought Solberge Manor from George Osbaldeston, the cricketer.

He erected an elaborate memorial to her in St Michael’s and All Angels Church in North Otterington.

He was applauded for his innovative agricultural activities, as some of his experiments in crop growing and animal feeding were adopted by others and assisted in production.

In 1884 he married Frances Ann Chapman and moved to USA for ten years where he invented new techniques in the production of steel.
