The earliest record of the site dates back to the Domesday Book (1086), but sadly nothing of that original dwelling remains, although it's believed the Cellars may have been part of the original building.

 

The oldest section of the present-day building, dates back to 1450, and now houses the Breakfast Room, Bar and Cellars below. The proprietor of Allington Manor at the time, owned a third of the village land. Then known as West Allington Manor, the house was passed on to many affluent yeoman farmers, before coming into possession by the Grant family, who were part of the larger Danby family in the 16th Century.

 

The Grants bought Allington Hall and most of the village land by the mid-17th Century. In 1660, the Grant family built numerous extensions around the building, including the Dutch gables, the upstairs bedrooms and the dog-leg grand staircase to complete the unique house that stands today.

 

The property passed through two more generations before the family fell on hard times, and sold the Manor for £841 to a gentleman called Reverend Thomas Williamson. For two and a half centuries, the Manor House remained with the Williamson family, and then by marriage the Welby family. However during this time, the structure fell into disrepair and was left abandoned and uninhabited. It wasn't until 1948, when the property was purchased by Mr. Palin (no not that one) who saved it from ruin.

 

The task of restoring the property to its former glory was undertaken by the Vincent family in 1983, who are still the proprietors of Allington Manor currently.

The ghost of a self-righteous male has been sensed in the Lord's Bedroom, with us on a previous investigation witnessing him turning on and off our laser grid equipment when asking him to. Also in here is an old portrait painting of a gentleman, whose eyes follow you around the room. No one knows the name of the man in the painting, all we know is that the painting came from another estate. Could this male spirit being connected to the Manor, or is he actually connected to the painting?

 

In the Drawing Room, an old mantlepiece clock chimes on its own, but there is one thing...   it doesn't work.

 

Upstairs in the Footman's Bedroom, a dark and angst religious spirit roams the old servants' quarters, angry about his homosexuality secret being exposed to his community in his time. He has drained batteries in multiple pieces of equipment on previous investigations, tilted forward the mirror on the dresser and has even growled at guests in different groups too. He's believed to have hung himself on a certain timber beam, as guests struggle to breathe as if being choked by his presence.

 

A Grey Lady has also been picked up in the servants' quarters, as well as children energies. Are these children lost here searching for their mother and father, and is the Grey Lady a former Maid or Nanny to the children?

 

In the Lady's Bedroom, many women who investigate this room have had to leave soon after entering because they suddenly feel sick, nauseated and dizzy. Is there a spirit here who has a dislike for women, and if so what is their reasoning for causing this unnerving phenomena?

 

Other poltergeist activity has been witnessed at this location, including doors opening and closing on their own by invisible forces. Static energies are constantly felt on both the ground and upper floors, and phantom whistles have been heard in the Foyer area. It's also in this area where a ghostly Black Dog has been felt moving around people's legs.

 

Will we encounter past members of the Grant family who loved this home? Who occupied the Manor in the 1450s? And what will we find lurking upstairs in the dark and spooky servants' quarters?
