History of the Hall
Conyngham Hall
 Conyngham Hall is one of Knaresborough's best known and most prestigious buildings.

The Grade II* listed building was restored to its former glory in 1995 with funding from the European Commission, North Yorkshire County Council, and Harrogate Borough Council.
The Hall was built towards the end of the eighteenth century by John Carr, on the Tudor site of Coghill Hall, the seat of Sir John Coghill (Baronet). In 1796, Ellen, the Dowager Countess Conyngham purchased the Hall and changed the name of the buildings and surrounding area.

In 1856 the Hall became the home of Basil Woodd, first Chairman of the Council. From 1905 it was owned by the Charlesworth family, who from 1934 to 1942 leased it to Sir Harold Mackintosh of Rowntree Mackintosh fame.
The opening ceremony of Conyngham Hall as a Business Centre took place on 5th November 1995 and was officiated by Edward MacMillan-Scott MEP and Phil Willis MP.
