Dovenby Hall, English country house in Dovenby, England.
Dovenby Hall stands within 115 acres of land northwest of Cockermouth, featuring architectural elements from multiple centuries including a 13th-century peel tower.
The Ballantine-Dykes family acquired the property around 1800 and made substantial modifications to the structure during the early nineteenth century.
The residence transformed from a private mansion to a mental hospital in 1930, reflecting the changing social needs of Cumberland during the twentieth century.
The Grade II listed status of Dovenby Hall requires special permissions for any structural modifications or alterations to maintain its historical integrity.
Malcolm Wilson purchased the property in 1998 and converted it into the headquarters for M-Sport, which operates Ford's World Rally Championship team.
