Thurnham Hall

Thurnham Hall is a Grade I listed 17th-century country house in the village of Thurnham, Lancashire, England, some 6 miles (10 km) south of the city of Lancaster. It is 2 miles (3.2 km) from Ashton Hall, home of the Duke of Hamilton. It was acquired by the Dalton family in 1556 and the present building is a three-storey stone-built house, probably built in the 17th century for Robert Dalton. It stands, facing west, in 30 acres (12 ha) of rising ground about a 1⁄4 mile (0.4 km) from the left bank of the River Conder. The building contains an impressive Jacobean Great Hall and now functions as a resort hotel.
