Burrow Hall, English country house in Burrow-with-Burrow, England.
Burrow Hall is an English country house built from sandstone ashlar with a slate roof, featuring seven bays on its south facade and ten bays on its east side. The structure displays the architectural proportions and solid construction typical of its era.
The current structure was built around 1740 by Westby Gill for Robert Fenwick on land that previously held a Roman fort from the Flavian period. The site thus has been an important location spanning many centuries.
The interior spaces feature ornate plaster ceilings created by Italian craftsmen that shape how the rooms feel today. These decorative elements reflect the skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined the home's design.
The hall underwent extensive renovations in 2014, which involved removing a modern connecting structure between the main building and the stable block. Visitors should note that the building's layout changed after these works.
Archaeological investigations in 2014 searched for remains of the former Roman fort beneath the main building. Despite these detailed explorations, no substantial traces were discovered.
