House & Family History: Quorn Hall was a seat of a junior branch of the Farnham family from the mid-15th century until 1686. In 1753 the House was purchased by Hugo Meynell, master and founder of the Quorn Hunt and "the Father of English Fox Hunting." Circa 1755, Meynell built new kennels and stables to the northwest of the House, traces of which remain today. He further added an extra story and more reception rooms, circa 1790. After the death of Captain Warner in 1929, the family left the area and Quorn Hall became the home of the Quorn Country Club. Leicestershire County Council purchased the Hall in 1937 as a residence hall for Loughborough College. During World War II Quorn was taken over by the Admiralty to house personnel undergoing training for the war. The House was returned to the college after the war; between 1983 and 2012 Quorn Hall was used as an outdoor education center by Leicestershire County Council.
