Overstone Hall is a Grade II listed stately home in Northamptonshire, England.

## History

The house was built in the early 1860s for Samuel Jones-Loyd, 1st Baron Overstone and Lady Overstone, designed by architect William Milford Teulon in French Renaissance style. It was used as a girls' boarding school from the 1920s until 1979. Overstone Hall became derelict after being destroyed in a fire in April 2001. Part of the building unaffected by the fire was used for retirement flats from 2008 to 2014. In March 2023, another suspected arson reportedly occurred. In 2019, plans to restore the building into apartments had been rejected by the council. In April 2023 it was reported that the owners of the building were applying for its demolition. West Northamptonshire Council is yet to make a final decision. The Victorian Society opposes the plans. 80 people objected to the plans of the sites owners Barry Howard Homes.
