Despite the caption, the correct spelling is Gisborough Hall. So even Frith’s who produced this card could be incorrect! However this Grade II listed building, now a MacDonald’s hotel still dominates the road into Guisborough from Whitby. The original manor house was demolished in the early 19th century when the Chaloner family moved to Long Hull. In 1842 Admiral Thomas Chaloner inherited the estate and in 1856 created the present mansion house in the Jacobean style.
