Kiplin Hall is a Jacobean historic house at Kiplin in North Yorkshire, England, that is now a Grade I listed building. It stands by the River Swale in the Vale of Mowbray. The nearest villages are Scorton, Great Langton and Bolton-on-Swale. Much of the local landscape has been extensively quarried for sand and gravel extraction.
The house was built in the 1620s for George Calvert, Secretary of state to James I, who later became first Lord Baltimore and founder of Maryland, USA.
Ghostly goings-on at the hall are reported to include footsteps and sobbing in a drawing room, a Victorian woman seen on a staircase and a 1940s airman spotted in a kitchen. Many visitors and volunteers have also smelled pipe smoke in an old kitchen and a hint of cologne has been detected in another drawing room. Orbs have appeared in photos.
A permanent exhibition charts the founding of Maryland by George Calvert and the lives of the families that have lived in Kiplin Hall through the centuries.

This is apparently my ancestral home as well. My family heritage is that of the line of Calverts who actually (eventually) took the title “Baltimore” as the surname. Not sure what time frame this occurred, but am fascinated to know more. This was traced and confirmed by my grandfather.
my mother was a housemaid during the 1920s I have heard many tales of their exploits .I plan to visit next week
this is my ancestors home granted to George Calvert by the King of England, as George was his most respected Confindaunt and Attorney at the time, it did not start out this big, but grew in size. I am a Calvert and proud of my heritage.

If the Most Haunted team spent less time recording themselves and point the camera at their surroundings they might catch something.

I love this programme!
It was a really haunted place and you can learn a lot of history about the place!
have not watched for some time, thought would give it a go again, sorry to see that the portrait used when discussing the execution of Charles the 1st was that of Charles the 2nd.
