It is one of four neighbouring country houses and estates in the Dukeries in north Nottinghamshire all occupied by dukes at one time during their history. The hall is constructed of rock-faced ashlar with ashlar dressings. It is built in four storeys with a square floor plan surrounding a central courtyard, nine bays wide and eight bays deep.[1] HistoryRobert Pierrepont, 1st Earl of Kingston-upon-Hull acquired the Thoresby lands in 1633, but was killed in the Civil War in 1643.[2] His son Henry Pierrepont, the 2nd Earl, built the first grand house, attributed to the architect Talman, about 1670.[2] The house was remodelled for William Pierrepont, the 4th Earl, during 1685–87, probably by Benjamin Jackson, after the earl had been granted the right in 1683 to create the park by enclosure from Sherwood Forest.[1] The house was the birthplace of Lady Mary Pierrepont, wife of Edward Wortley Montagu, in 1689.[5]The estate passed to Evelyn Pierrepont, 2nd Duke of Kingston-upon-Hull (1711–1773), who fought at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 and during whose ownership the house was destroyed by fire that same year. Twenty years later the architect John Carr during 1767–1772 built a new house on the same site.[1] Humphry Repton landscaped the park at the same time.[2] When the 2nd Duke died in 1773 he left the estate to his wife, Elizabeth Chudleigh, the former wife of the Earl of Bristol. After a very public court case, she was declared married bigamously to the duke and obliged to surrender the property on her death in 1786 to the duke's nephew, Charles Medows, a Royal Navy officer. He adopted the name Pierrepont and later became the 1st Earl Manvers.[3] In 1868, Sydney Pierrepont, the 3rd Earl Manvers, commissioned the celebrated country house architect Anthony Salvin to demolish the house after just a hundred years and replace it with the present house, erected {{convert|500|m|yd}} to the north. Completed in 1871, it measures {{convert|55|m|ft}} on its east and south fronts and {{convert|48|m|ft}} on its west front. The impressive Great Hall, with minstrels' gallery at the west end, is {{convert|19|m|ft}} long and {{convert|14|m|ft}} high. The house descended to Gervas Pierrepont, 6th Earl Manvers who died in 1955 without a male heir and the title thereby became extinct. The house remained with his wife, Countess Manvers, and her family.[4] To minimise a perceived threat from coal mining subsidence the buildings were sold to the National Coal Board in 1979 and sold on the open market ten years later. The core of the Thoresby furniture collection was retained by the family, while the remainder was sold at auction by Sotheby's in 1989. After a number of owners it was acquired by Warner Leisure Hotels.[3] The {{convert|8400|m2|sqft|adj=on}} Salvin house had a new bedroom wing added before opening as a 200-room country house hotel with spa facilities in 2000.[3] The Queen's Royal Lancers and Nottinghamshire Yeomanry Museum occupies part of the courtyard.[5]References1. ^1 2 {{NHLE|num=1045449|desc=Thoresby Hall and adjoining outbuildings, gate and railings|accessdate=15 March 2018}} 2. ^1 2 {{NHLE|num=1000361|desc=Thoresby Park|accessdate=6 June 2018}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite web| url = http://www.worksopheritagetrail.org.uk/resources/thoresby_history.pdf| title = Thoresby|accessdate = 26 March 2013}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Cliffe Castle Park Conservation Group|url=http://www.cliffecastlepark.org.uk/morehistory.html|publisher=|accessdate=15 March 2018}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-14295666|title=Charge of the Light Brigade bugle stars at new museum|publisher=BBC|date=26 July 2011|accessdate=5 June 2018}} External links
