            Another perspective

National Trust Property near York

Ralph Bourchier inherited the Beningbrough estate in 1556 and began building the first house on a site approximately 300 metres south east of the present hall.

In 1700 John Bourchier inherited the estate, and in 1704 embarked on a grand tour of Europe, spending almost two years in Italy. On his return and inspired by the Italianate baroque architectural style, John planned and built the current hall.

Lord Chesterfield bought the property in 1916 from the Dawnay family, who had inherited the estate from the last of the Bourchers' direct line. In 1939 Beningbrough was requisitioned as a billet for British and Canadian airmen and Lady Chesterfield moved to Home Farm returning to Beningbrough Hall in 1947. On Lady Chesterfield's death Beningbrough Hall was offered to the Treasury by her executers to pay death duties. In 1958 the National Trust acquired Beningbrough, devoid of contents.
