The Save Seaton Delaval Hall Appeal is about so much more than saving an important historic house. A successful appeal will create 450 acres of gardens, parkland and woodland walks amongst the towns and cities of the North East.
A place for the community
 |
Through tourism and other boosts to the economy, the estate could once again play a lead role in the region, bringing jobs and development to this part of the North East to help the area thrive. |
As a visitor experience, Seaton Delaval Hall offers a unique insight into 1,000 years of English history as lived by a family touched by both genius and eccentricity.
If Seaton Delaval Hall, gardens and grounds once more become the hub of the community, the possibilities are endless. The romantic and evocative central hall, for example, could once again become a magnificent theatrical backdrop for plays, concerts and exhibitions.

A private place
 |
If the appeal fails, it is unlikely that visitors will be welcome, and the public could be denied access to one of the finest rooms in Europe. |
If the estate falls into private hands, the parkland could be lost to development.

Please help us

Please support the Save Seaton Delaval Hall Appeal today. If a significant proportion of the appeal target has not been raised by the end of 2008, there is a very real risk that the house and estate could be fragmented forever. |
