Otterington Hall is a Grade II listed mansion in South Otterington, near Northallerton, North Yorkshire, England.
One of the earlier occupants, from before 1831 until his death in 1837, was Captain John George Boss R.N. He had a distinguished naval career, being involved in the capture of several French vessels and the protection of British trading interests in the Caribbean during the Napoleonic Wars. He was presented with a silver-gilt cup in 1812 with the following inscription: "Presented to JOHN GEORGE BOSS ESQR. Captain of his B. Majesty's Sloop RHODIAN, For his Zeal and Valor in the destruction of Two French Privateers & defending a Convoy From ST JAGO DE CUBA to HENEAGA, Diego, Monga, Pasqual Privintos, Pedro Blanco Carariego, June 28th 1812". The cup was recently sold at Bonhams for over £40,000. He was a Member of Parliament for the Northallerton constituency and he gained the rank of captain in November 1833. He married twice: Charlotte Robinson in 1814, who died in 1832 aged 56, and Elizabeth Wylie in 1834.
