In the middle ages the Order of the Knights Hospitaller of Saint John of Jerusalem had a preceptory here and held the manor. This establishment, eventually passed into private hands and formed the basis for Old Dalby Hall, though little, if any, of the fabric of those days survives now. The hall and estate have had many notable owners, among them were Oliver Cromwell, ‘Hanging Judge Jeffreys” and the Duke of Buckingham. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the hall and estate were in the hands of the Sawyer family. It was rebuilt in 1856 following a fire.
