Eshton Hall, a stately home now converted into apartments

Eshton is a small village and civil parish in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, England. At the 2011 Census the population was less than 100 and is included in the civil parish of Flasby with Winterburn. It is in the Yorkshire Dales and about 6 miles south of Grassington.

Eshton Hall is a large grade II* listed country house, built in 1825-7 by architect George Webster of Kendal in an Elizabethan revival style for Matthew Wilson.[1] Eston Hall was inherited by Frances Mary Richardson Currer who held a large library.[2]

The hall has since been converted into apartments.
