Hovingham Hall is a country house built in the Palladian style in the village of Hovingham, North Yorkshire, England. It has been the seat of the Worsley family and the childhood home of the Duchess of Kent. It was built in the 18th century on a site the Worsleys have occupied since the 16th century.
It is built of limestone ashlar with Westmoreland slate roofs to an L-shaped floor plan. An attached stable wing forms the main entrance. The hall is Grade I listed on the National Heritage List for England.[1] A Tuscan temple and the ornamental bridge over a waterfall in the grounds of the hall are both listed Grade II.[2][3] The wall to the north and the east of the hall and a pigeoncote to the north are both also Grade II listed.[4][5]
