Normanby Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Normanby Hall is a classical British mansion, located 5 miles (8 km) north of Scunthorpe in North Lincolnshire.
The present Hall was built in 1825-30 for Sir Robert Sheffield (1786-1862), whose family had lived on the site since 1539. It replaced a previous 17th century building. The family moved out of Normanby Hall in 1963. The Hall is now in the care of the North Lincolnshire Council. The former 350 acre (1.4 kmĀ²) estate around the Hall is now a Country Park. Within it, there are a restored working Victorian walled garden, a farming museum, a stableyard, duck ponds, a deer sanctuary, a fishing lake, a miniature railway and broadleaf woodland.
