Kirkley Hall
Kirkley Hall is a 17th Century Grade II listed building situated in the heart of the Northumberland countryside. It is now used as a Horticultural and Agricultural training centre.
Weddings are also performed here because of the attractive surroundings which include ornamental gardens and grounds with all plants labelled, wall-trained fruit trees and greenhouse plants.
The location of Kirkley Hall in one of England’s Border Counties ensures a turbulent past. The Hall’s past occupants have not only shaped the regions history but have also made an impact on the nation.
Kirkley was originally known as Cricklaw - Cryc in Celtic meaning Hill - Lawe in Old English meaning Hill So Cricklaw means Hill Hill !! This duplication seems to have occurred when the meaning of the original word was forgotten.
The land formed part of the Barony of Mitford.
