A COUNTRY estate is to undertake North Yorkshire’s largest ever archaeological survey of the grounds of a stately home in the hope of uncovering prehistoric or Roman finds.
Kiplin Hall, between Scorton and Northallerton, has received a Heritage Lottery Fund grant of £53,100 to conduct the survey within what remains of the site which covered more than 5,000 acres in the late 19th century.
