Crook Hall & Gardens
An Impromptu stop in Durham, on our way home... A beautiful Jacobean/Edwardian house, that is currently being lived in. The oldest part of the house, being the living room, which was once the kitchen, said to be haunted by the white lady. Also, the Great Hall which is medieval, some white orbs, mists seem to have appeared on my footage, also look out for the figure, on the balcony in the Great hall!... Do you believe in the paranormal?

Wedding At St Cuthbert's Churh Hall In Crook Provided By County Durham Wedding DJ
County Durham Wedding DJ was booked to provide the disco for Debbie & Steve's evening wedding reception at St Cuthbert's Church Hall in Crook. The happy couple gave us a list of some of their favourite songs and we played them at appropriate points during the night.
The newlyweds weren't keen on R&B, hip-hop, Justin Bieber or any other songs from those styles/genres. So, we avoided them and played a wide selection of music from the 60s to the present day. Debbie & Steve selected the Bee Gees and Wedding Day as their first dance as husband and wife.

Crook is a historic market town in County Durham, in the North East of England. Located a couple of miles north of the River Wear, Crook lies about 9 miles south-west of the historic city of Durham and 5 miles north-west of Bishop Auckland.The A690 road from Durham turns into the A689 leading up through Wolsingham and Stanhope into the scenic upper reaches of Weardale (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). Located on the edge of Weardale, Crook is consequently sometimes referred to as the Gateway to Weardale.
The centre of Crook, a designated conservation area, features a good variety of shops and businesses with the market held on Tuesdays and Saturdays. There are two prominent churches, the centrally located St Catherine's CE and Our Lady Immaculate & St Cuthbert's RC on Church Hill. On top of the hills to the east sits Crook Golf Club, its challenging 18 hole course offering spectacular views of the local countryside. For a town of its size Crook also features a good selection of pubs, cafes and restaurants. Crook is the 10th largest settlement in County Durham and the 35th largest in the North East of England as of 2016.
Crook first appeared as an agricultural village around 1795 although its surrounding districts – Billy Row, Stanley, White Lea, Roddymoor and Helmington Row – were established much earlier. In these days Crook was predominantly farmland; however, it also had an Inn and a blacksmith shop, consequently the primary field of employment was within the agricultural industry.
Crook has a famous amateur football team, Crook Town F.C.. Crook Town have won the FA Amateur Cup five times, most recently beating Enfield F.C. in 1964, before the cup was abolished in 1974. This record is second only to Crook's near neighbours, Bishop Auckland F.C.. The club have also reached the third round of the FA Cup and formed a key role in the development of FC Barcelona, playing a number of friendly matches in the 1910s and 1920s.
Crook has a backdrop of traditional and modern buildings. The tallest building in the town is the Council Building. It has 5 floors and at about 100 ft, it is a prominent feature of the Crook skyline. However, the council building is dwarfed by Crook's surrounding hills, which completely surround the town except on the south side. The tallest stands at 300 metres above the town, about 980 ft. The highest point in the town is on West Road where the height is 210 metres (about 690 ft). Approximately 2 miles to the west of Crook on the A689 towards Wolsingham and Weardale, 400 yards past the roundabout junction with the A68, is the surviving World War II Harperley POW Camp 93, a Scheduled Ancient Monument within English Heritage.
Crook hosts various annual events including Crook Carnival, Crook Community Christmas Event and the Crookfest music festival. Crook Carnival is held in early July and features a parade, rides, stalls and live music. Crook Community Christmas Event held at the end of November also features a parade and the switching on of the town's Christmas lights.

The White Lady of Crook Hall | A Durham City Spectre
Welcome to my channel, here you'll find videos dedicated to preserving the myths, legends, culture, and heritage of the British Isles. This is a fairly unknown ghost story in England, at least regarding detail. I visited Crook Hall in County Durham, a manor house haunted by the mysterious White Lady that many visitors report coming into contact with.
