St John Oulton/ Oulton Hall Heritage Open Day

Oulton Hall in Oulton, West Yorkshire, England is a Grade II listed building, once the home of the Blayds/Calverley family. After a major fire in 1850 the Hall was remodelled, but its fortunes eventually went into decline until it was revived for use as a hotel. It is now a 4 star hotel, part of the QHotels group.

It was then used it as a mental hospital until 1971. Chaning hands therafter the hall fell into disrepair, and in 1974 it was listed as derelict. In 1991 De Vere Hotels acquired the lease and rescued the Hall. £20 million was spent on restoration and expansion, and the Hall was transformed into a hotel set in an estate of large estate including a golf course and a spa.
