Ellingham Hall

Built by Sir john Haggerston in the Seventeenth Century on the site of an earlier possibly medieval property. The hall was enlarged by his successor Edward Haggerston but suffered severe fire damage that destroyed most of the East wing. in World War Two it was used by the Women's Land Army who cultivated the Tennis Courts and used parts of the building as storage. from 1955 to 1988 it was used as a preparatory school for boys. it was bought by Property Developers in 1989, but the economic crash of that year prevented any development and it was compulsory purchased. It lay empty until 1995 when it was purchased by the present owners Helen and Aiden Ruff, who have restored and refurbished the hall and is now used as a venue for weddings, meetings, holidays.
