Crook Hall
Crook Hall, sited near Lanchester, County Durham some 8 miles north west of the city of Durham, was one of two Roman Catholic seminaries which temporarily replaced the Douai seminary in Douai, France when that college was suppressed soon after the French Revolution. Crook Hall was itself superseded after a few years by Ushaw College. The hall had belonged to the Baker family since 1635 and was remodelled in 1716 by George Baker, MP for Durham City.
