Description: Holme Pierrepont Hall stands by the church of St Edmund. The Hall still retains its red brick Tudor front with battlementing and dates from c 1510. The rooms inside appear as a medieval lodging and are as they would have been in those times. There is a hall open to the roof showing the ancient timbers. With the two other ranges of a later date a 'U' shape is formed around a beautiful enclosed garden. One of these wings is Georgian. The property has always been in the Pierrepont family who were the Earls and Dukes of Kingston in the 17th and 18th centuries. In 1806 the house was inherited by a nephew, Earl Manvers. The Manvers built Thoresby Hall, another grand house, between 1864 and 1875 and moved there on its completion. Holme Pierrepont then became a lesser house. In 1969 Mrs Brackenbury, a descendant of the 3rd Earl Manvers, purchased the property with her husband and so it still remains within the family. There are many family portraits in the house and many family monuments in the church including an effigy of Sir Henry Pierrepont who died in 1499.
