Beningbrough Hall is a large Baroque[1][2] mansion near the village of Beningbrough, North Yorkshire, England, and overlooks the River Ouse.
It has baroque interiors, cantilevered stairs, wood carving and central corridors which run the length of the house. Externally the house is a red-brick Baroque mansion with a grand drive running to the main frontage and a walled garden, The house is home to changing exhibitions on the first floor art gallery and stories of the estate on the ground floor. It has a restaurant, shop and garden shop, and was shortlisted in 2010 for the Guardian Family Friendly Museum Award.
The Hall is set in extensive grounds and is separated from them by a ha-ha (a sunken wall)[3] to prevent sheep and cattle entering the Hall's gardens or the Hall itself. The gardens are undergoing a redesign by garden designer Andy Sturgeon.
