History

Originally built as a large country hall, the house was later divided into smaller dwellings. [2] The hall features Baroque features on the front. [1]

The hall was historically linked to the Hall family that had been in Castleton since at least 1318. [3] In 1814 Isaac Hall inherited the hall from his father Micah Hall. [2]

The building was purchased by the Youth Hostels Association in 1942 and operated as Castleton Youth Hostel from 1943 until 2012, [4] until the new hostel opened at Losehill Hall. [5]
