Background
History
Around 1812, Bryan John Salvin of Croxdale purchased a manor house, dating back to the 13th century, called New Burnhall. Ignatius Bonomi redesigned it from 1821 to 1834 in the gothic and neoclassical style under the name Burn Hall. The seminary closed to full time students in 1995 when the costs of training priests became prohibitive. The restoration of the main house and the redevelopment of the area to the rear by Jane Darbyshire Associates won the City Trust's architectural commendation of the year in 1998.
