In early 2023, Archaeological Research Services Ltd undertook a Historic Buildings and Structures Assessment Survey for the National Trust, on fifteen farmsteads on the Wallington estate, Northumberland.
A total of 227 buildings were surveyed for this project, with the aim to enhance our understanding of these important heritage assets, and with the survey works uploaded to the National Trust’s Historic Buildings, Sites and Monuments Record (HBSMR).
The site of the present Wallington Hall is thought to have originated as a Norman moorland castle and has had a rich history since – passing from one family dynasty to another over several hundred years.
