According to their website https://www.broughamhall.co.uk/ "Originally a fortified manor house built under the shadow of Brougham Castle, in 1651 the Hall was purchased by Lady Anne Clifford who oversaw extensive renovations and rebuilt the onsite chapel, St Wilfred’s. The Brougham family re-acquired the Hall in 1726 and it became their family seat, reaching its height in the Victorian era. During WW2 Brougham Hall became home to hundreds of soldiers for the development and testing of a top secret weapon, the Canal Defence Light, and was visited by Winston Churchill and Dwight D Eisenhower in 1941."
