HISTORICAL NOTE

The history of Clifton Hall stretches back to the 11th Century. The ‘Manor of Keswick’ was noted in the 11th Century in the Domesday Survey. Clifton Hall is on top of a cliff on the edge of the village of Clifton, overlooking the River Trent, probably because the site was easily defensible.

In the 13th Century, the Hall came into the ownership of the Clifton family. The Clifton family had arrived in the area in the 11th Century and took their name from the village of Clifton where they settled. In the late 13th Century, Gervase de Clifton bought the manors of Clifton and Wilford in Nottingham and the family became Lords of the Manor. The original form of Clifton Hall was that of a fortified tower house, designed for defence as well as habitation.

King Charles I stayed at Clifton Hall in 1632 as a guest of Sir Gervase Clift on.

The house was largely rebuilt during 1778–1797. It was probably during this period that the original tower house was demolished. The octagonal domed hall built by Sir Robert Clifton, which incorporated many of the old rooms of the house, c.1750 was retained during the rebuilding. The north wing is of a later date and was probably used by servants as quarters and a working area, while the owners would have resided in the south wing.

In the 1940s Lieutenant Colonel Peter Thomas Clifton began to sell off the Clifton family estates. In 1947, 944 acres of the family’s land in Clifton was sold and an auction of the contents of Clifton Hall was held in 1953. Peter Thomas Clinton sold Clifton Hall and the remains of the estate in 1958, ending a period of 700 years where the family had owned the house.

In 1958 the Hall was opened as Clifton Hall Girls’ Grammar School. It remained open until 1976. Nottingham Trent University then used the Hall until 2002. It was sold to a private buyer in the early 2000s who built houses on the grounds and converted Clifton Hall into two luxury homes. Fourteen houses were built to the south east of the Hall.

Clifton Hall today sits within the Clifton Village Conservation Area and is a Grade I listed building.
