House & Family History: Sand Hutton Hall was illustrated in "The Builder" in 1881. In 1930, after the death of Sir Robert James Milo Walker, 4th Bt., the estate, but not the house, was sold to the Church of England. During World War II the house was occupied by Polish servicemen. In 1955 the Walker family sold Sand Hutton Hall to new owners who demolished the southern half for its building materials and converted the northern half into flats. In the 1971 the northern half was demolished.
