Burn Hall, English country house in Durham, England

The halls grey stone walls and Gothic elements combine with neoclassical features throughout the structure, designed by architect Ignatius Bonomi between 1821 and 1834.

The property traces its origins to the 13th century when it was known as New Burnhall, until Bryan John Salvin acquired it in 1812 and transformed the estate.

The Saint Joseph's Missionary Society of Mill Hill operated a boys' school on the premises after purchasing the property from the Salvin family in 1924.

The Grade II* listed building stands within designated gardens at coordinates 54.7424, -1.59636, requiring special permissions for any structural modifications or alterations.
