Crackpot Hall
« on: Monday 06 October 14 09:23 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out who were the freeholders of Crackpot Hall, Swaledale in the 1700-1800's. I would be most grateful for any help as I don't know where to find any information.

Crossing my fingers, kind regards, Brenda

There's a will on the National Archives site for a Robert Raw of Crackpot Hall proved at Chester 28/10/1807.
