Ogston Hall is a privately owned 18th-century country house situated at Brackenfield, near Alfreton, Derbyshire. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1] A building on the site is listed in the Domesday Book as part of the Deincourt manor of Morton.[2] The Revell family of South Normanton held Ogston in the 14th century by marriage to the Deincourt heiress.[3]
The house has its origins about 1500 but was much altered in the 17th century by the Revells. A two-storey north west wing with attics and basement was added in 1659 and a connected stable block was added in 1695.[1] The earliest member of the family of whom anything is known was Thomas Revell of Ogston, sergeant-at-law, who made a fortune from lead smelting. His will of 1474 survives.
