History (Courtesy of the Whitehaven News)-The Grade II-listed Kirklinton Hall, originally built in 1660 and further extended in 1875, was once an impressive country house, then a hotel, nightclub and casino.
The house was used by the RAF during the Second World War before retired farmers Doris and Willie Hay bought it in 1948 and transformed it into a nightclub and hotel in the sixties.
The hall fell victim to a fire, leaving its interior badly scarred. The roof was also taken off and the inside walls demolished.
It was put up for sale in 2002 for £350k http://property.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/property/article1181043.ece
