Aislaby Hall is a historic building in the village of Aislaby, near Pickering, North Yorkshire, in England. The house was built in 1742 on behalf of Thomas Hayes. Its roof was rebuilt in the 19th century, and in 1896, a new service wing was added, incorporating part of an earlier house. In 1906, the wing was extended, and a garden porch was added. The house was Grade II* listed in 1953, along with its front wall and gate piers. Its gazebo and garden walls, contemporary with the house, are separately Grade II* listed. The building is constructed of sandstone, with part of the service wing rendered. The main body of the building is two rooms deep, and it has a central stairhall. It is two storeys high, and the front is five bays wide. It has a central front door, with a Gothick fanlight and a doorcase with Doric order pilasters. The windows are sashes, and in the garden is a large lead water butt, dated 1714. The Georgian interior survives largely intact, including the cantilevered dogleg staircase, and assorted plasterwork and panelling. The gazebo has three sides of brick and one of sandstone. It is one storey high, with a semi-basement, and is of a single bay. Its door, up a stone staircase, is partly panelled and partly glazed, and surrounded by a Doric doorcase. It has a pyramidal roof, with a finial, and a weathervane in the form of a dragon. Inside, there is an original chimneypiece with carved fretwork, shutters and window seats, and a ceiling painting.

A170 road

The A170 is an A road in North Yorkshire, England that links Thirsk with Scarborough via Sutton Bank and through Helmsley, Kirkbymoorside, and Pickering. The road is 47 miles (76 km), and a single carriageway for almost its totality. The route has been in existence since prehistoric times and there are folk-tales about famous people from history using it. When turnpikes were installed between York and Coxwold and Ampleforth, drovers would take their cattle this way because it was wide enough and meant they avoided paying the tolls.

The church is built of limestone, incorporating fragments of earlier material, and has roofs of stone flags, slate and tile. The church consists of a nave, a south porch, and a chancel with a vestry, and on the west gable is a bellcote with a sprocketed shingled spirelet and a weathervane. The west doorway is Norman, and has a moulded round arch with attached shafts and scalloped capitals. The south doorway is also Norman, and has a round arch with two orders, and traces of waterleaf on the capitals. Inside, there are two piscinae, and 17th-century wooden pews and altar rails.
