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]
