Ebberston Hall

Ebberston Hall is a Grade I listed country house in Ebberston, North Yorkshire, England.^[1] It was constructed during the 18th century for William Thompson.^[1] It was subsequently inherited by Sir Charles Hotham-Thompson, 8th Baronet, followed by Beaumont Hotham, 3rd Baron Hotham.^[1] It was later purchased by George Osbaldeston,^[1] before passing into the ownership (by inheritance from his father who had acquired it in 1941) of West de Wend Fenton.^[2]

Built as a summer villa and designed by Colen Campbell, the hall is built of sandstone and has been altered. The main front has one storey and a basement, and three bays. The basement extends to form a terrace that is approached by an open staircase, flanked at the bottom by obelisk torch standards. The front has vermiculated rustication. A further flight of steps leads to a central door with pilaster jambs, a radial fanlight, and a rusticated surround with chamfered voussoirs, and a keystone with a mask and a monogram. The doorcase has attached Tuscan columns, and a pediment with a bust of a faun in the tympanum. The outer bays contain sash windows with chamfered voussoirs, and keystones with masks and foliage. At the top is a projecting cornice with a balustrade and corner vases. AT the rear are five bays, the middle three bays containing a Tuscan loggia.^[3][4]
