AUSTHWAITE HALL

DESCRIPTION + /

Earthworks in the vicinity of Dalegarth Hall are considered to be an old tower which preceded the construction of the present building. This has been known as Austhwaite, but this may be the same as Dalegarth, the last male Austhwaite dying in 1345 and Dalegarth first being mentioned in 1437. The earthworks are indistinct and may alternatively represent bloomery spoil heaps. Excavation would determine the nature of the site.
