Shotton Hall is a former mansion in Peterlee, County Durham, England. It is Grade II listed and is now operated by Peterlee Town Council as offices and a conference centre. It lies in the west of the town of Peterlee, just east of the A19 road near the village of Old Shotton.
The Manor of Shotton, near Peterlee, County Durham, was owned by the Thompson family. In 1756 the Thompson heiress, Elizabeth, married Charles Brandling and they commissioned the building of a new mansion to replace the existing manor house.
The Hall was enlarged and improved in about 1820 but the Shotton estate was sold by the Brandlings in 1850 to Shotton Coal Company. The Hall was occupied by the Burdon family and later by a series of tenants. It fell into a state of neglect and disrepair.[1]
In 1949 the Hall was occupied by the Peterlee Development Corporation and in 1984 was acquired by the Peterlee Town Council who restored the property for their own occupation.[2] This is a Grade II listed building.
