hearsay 17th century building. Once owned by the Mounsey family, who were known as the kings of Patterdale, the hall was their palace.

hearsay An ancestor of the Mounseys of Goldrill Cottage acquired the title of Kings of Patterdale, from having successfully repulsed a body of Scottish moss-troopers at this place [Stybarrow Crag], with the aid of a few villagers. His palatial residence was at that time Patterdale Hall; but a few years ago the estate was sold to Mr. Marshall of Leeds.
