Overstone Hall, Grade II listed country house in Overstone, England
The French Renaissance style mansion contains 119 rooms spread across multiple floors with ornate architectural details and expansive corridors.
Samuel Jones-Loyd, 1st Baron Overstone, commissioned architect William Milford Teulon to build this grand residence in the early 1860s for his family estate.
The building operated as a prestigious girls' boarding school from the 1920s until 1979, educating generations of young women in Northamptonshire.
The structure remains in critical condition following multiple fires, with the most recent damage occurring in March 2023 amid ongoing preservation debates.
The original owner, Lord Overstone, expressed strong dissatisfaction with the completed mansion, choosing to spend minimal time in its numerous rooms.
