Hooton Pagnell Hall & Church Open Day
Hooton Pagnell Hall, Hooton Pagnell, Doncaster, South Yorkshire, DN5 7BW
Join us for a day of history, as we explore how the Hall and grounds have been used in the past and its transition to the modern day. We're opening our gardens, grounds, and Tithe Barn to the public. We will also be displaying vintage cars from the 1910s/1920s and sharing the history of one of one nurses who learnt to drive at Hooton Pagnell. Our team will be on hand to chat with curious visitors about the architecture, our World War I connections, and the history of the Warde-Norbury family.
We will also be opening the Church which is one of the oldest and most historic in Yorkshire, dating back to Saxon times. It stands at the village center, 80 meters above sea level, and has been central to the community since the village received its Market Charter in 1253.
The Grade I listed building, restored in 1876 by J.L. Pearson, features 12th–14th century architecture, with a west tower, two-bay nave and chancel, north aisle, and south porch. Built of rubble and ashlar limestone, parts of the church show Saxon herringbone masonry, though most elements are Norman.
Whether you’re a lover of architecture, local history, or specifically World War I history, Our Open Day offers something for everyone.
