Ormesby St Margaret With Scratby - Scratby Hall

Scratby Hall

Scratby Hall, the country house of John Ramey, was occupied by his daughter, the Dowager Countess of Home, until her death in 1814. The house was originally built by John Fisher, Esq. John Ramey, Esq., an attorney, then barrister, retired to Scratby Hall, where he died in 1796. From 1949 to the mid-1980s, the home and estate served as Duncan Hall School. In 1989, a fire damaged 40% of the 11 bedroom country house.
