Camblesforth Hall
Camblesforth Hall is a historic building in Camblesforth, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
The hall was built in about 1690, probably by John Etty, and extended on several occasions. By the 20th century, it was used as a farmhouse, and at some point was divided into two properties. It was Grade I listed in 1966. It became empty in about 2010, and fell into poor repair. In 2020 it was purchased by Naomi and Byron Ward, who restored the property. During the process, they discovered the name "Francis Mary Adams" scratched into the window, the name of a resident in the mid 18th century. Some of the renovation works were captured and featured on Channel 4 'Renovation Nation' in 2022. Since the restoration, it has been used as a wedding venue.
The house is built of reddish-brown brick on a plinth with stone coping, stone dressings, quoins, overhanging eaves with modillions, and a hipped slate roof with a central well. There are two storeys and attics, and seven bays. The central doorway has a moulded architrave, a frieze with floral scrolls, and a broken pediment on consoles. The windows are sashes with flat gauged brick arches, and in the attic are four pedimented dormers with horizontally-sliding sashes. At the rear is a large round-headed sash window with radial glazing, imposts and a keystone. On the east return is a doorway with a Gibbs surround and a devil mask keystone. Inside, much of the original interior survives, including the main and service staircases, much panelling, and many doors, plastered ceilings and fireplaces.

St Mary's Catholic Church, Carlton
St Mary's Church is a Catholic parish church in Carlton, a village near Selby in North Yorkshire, in England.
Until the mid-19th century, Catholic worship took place in a chapel at what became Carlton Towers. In 1839, Miles Stapleton inherited the property, and decided to commission a Catholic chapel in the nearby village of Carlton. It was designed by M. E. Hadfield, and construction started in June 1841, with the first service in the new church taking place on 31 August 1842. The altar and reredos were added in about 1876, and side altars in 1904. The church was restored by Weightman & Brown in the 1980s, while the east end was reordered in 1992, with new sanctuary furniture installed. The church was Grade II* listed in 1993.
The church is built of white brick with stone dressings and Welsh slate roofs. It consists of a nave with a south porch, and a chancel with a north vestry. On the southwest corner is a gabled bellcote with a pointed arch. Above the three-light east window is a canopied niche. Inside the church are the original pews, and three chancel chairs made by Robert Thompson. Attached to the church by a brick link is a presbytery, also dating from 1842.
