History
According to one source, the hall was built in 1637 and was owned by the Stockdale family (Stockdale Baronets), who descend from the Yorkshire landowning family of the same name.
In 1859 the East Wing by Anthony Salvin was added by Henry Stockdale.
During the 1980s the Hall became known for performances of Operatic Music organised by Frederick Stockdale.
The long association of the Stockdale family at Mears Ashby Hall ended when in the 1990s when the house was sold and Hoddington House became the principal family residence.
