Tallentire Hall, Cumberland
« on: Thursday 10 April 08 08:38 BST (UK) »

Looking for photos and history of Tallentire Hall, which I have just discovered was the 'family seat"when the Fletchers lived there. Cannot find much on the internet has it changed name?

Hi Eryka,

I've had a quick search, most of what i've found refers to William Browne esq of Tallentire Hall.

There is a thread about the Fletchers of Tallentire Hall. here

Also found this small bit:-
"TALLENTIRE HALL in Cockermouth, Cumbria, is a smallish but impressive period gentleman's residence, now converted into flats." link

There's also photo's on google of the stable block which has been converted and is let out as holiday cottages



Regards
 Rewcastle.

If you go to www.historicaldirectories.org, find by location, and click on cumberland, then open each of the directories and search for tallentire, quite a few references come up but there was also a tallentire family in the area so beware.

It sounds as though you have already discovered a reasonable sized property but you should be aware that in Cumberland and Westmoreland the term "Hall" often means little more than an old stone built house.  I got very excited some years ago about part of my family living in a hall, only to discover that it was a row of four very small but very old stone built cottages.

If you go to http://www.cumbriaimagebank.co.uk and put in "Tallentire" as a search it will come up with images of Tallentire Hall (as well as some for the village of Tallentire.

Hope you find this useful/interesting
