Arncliffe Hall

Arncliffe Hall is a historic building in Ingleby Arncliffe, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The first Arncliffe Hall was constructed in the late 16th century for William Mauleverer, facing north. From 1753 to 1754, a new hall was constructed, on the same site but facing south. It was designed by John Carr, for Thomas Mauleverer. Carr also designed a stable block to the southeast, which was altered in 1905. The hall was grade I listed in 1952, while the stables were grade II* listed in 1966, at the same time as the forecourt and garden walls.

The country house is built of sandstone, with a hipped Welsh slate roof, three storeys and a basement. The west front has five bays, alternating quoins, floor and sill bands, and stepped eaves. In the centre, balustraded steps lead to a doorway with an architrave, a fanlight a cornice and a pediment. The windows are sashes under flat arches with voussoirs, those in the ground floor with hood moulds. To the left are the remains of a later single-storey wing. In the right return is a Diocletian window and a Venetian window. The garden front has a rusticated basement, and a central perron leading to a doorway with a Roman Doric doorcase, engaged columns and a pediment. On the right is a conservatory, and a wall with a pedimented gateway. Inside, much of the decoration of the saloon, dining room and library survives, as does the original staircase.

The stable block is built of sandstone with pantile roofs, and consists of four ranges round a rectangular courtyard. The main front has a modillion eaves cornice, an impost band, two storeys and seven bays. The middle three bays contain a carriage arch flanked by round-arched windows. The bays flanking these are pedimented, and contain round-arched recesses and doorways with fanlights. Short walls link the range to single-storey two-bay pavilions. The garden walls are also built of sandstone, and have flat copings. The wall running northeast has a cornice and ball finials, it contains a rusticated round-arched gateway, and an entrance with rusticated gate piers. The wall running northwest contains three gateways with keystones.

The tower was commissioned by Sir Hugh Bell, chair of the Tees Valley Water Board. A local story claims that Bell commissioned it over concerns that the local water supply would be interrupted during World War I. The tower is fed from a spring in the Cleveland Hills, about one mile away, and is stored in the tower, originally able to feed standpipes on demand. It was designed by Walter Brierley, and was completed in 1915. The building was grade II listed in 1990. It now feeds one cottage and some cattle troughs. Inside the base of the tower are stored a fire engine dating from about 1870, and an earlier funeral bier.

There are three storeys, and the tower contains a doorway with a chamfered moulded surround, and an inscribed and dated lintel. Above it is a panel containing an achievement and a motto. The tower is surrounded by a parterre of cobbles.

Cleveland Tontine

The Cleveland Tontine is a historic building in Ingleby Arncliffe, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. In the early 19th century, a turnpike was constructed from Crathorne, to join the existing road from Thirsk to Stokesley. A group of investors decided that the junction of the two roads would be a good location for a coaching inn. They funded it with subscriptions to a tontine, which totalled £2,500. From 1827 to 1843, it was a stop for the Cleveland stagecoach, from Leeds to Redcar; from 1823 to 1830 by the Expedition, from Leeds to Newcastle upon Tyne; and from 1833 to 1840 for the Mail from Leeds to South Shields. Various shorter-lived routes also called. Before 1923, the building was converted into a private home, Ingleby House. After World War II it became a hotel and restaurant. It was purchased by Provenance Inns in 2016, which spent £1,000,000 increasing the number of bedrooms from 7 to 21. In 2025, it closed for conversion into a wedding venue and cookery school. It lies at the junction of what are now the A19 and A172 roads. The building was grade II listed in 1952. The inn is built of sandstone, the rear wing whitewashed, with hipped Lakeland slate roofs. It has two storeys and a basement, a front of five bays, and a rear wing. In the centre, a perron leads to a doorway with engaged columns, a radial fanlight in an archivolt, and a pediment, above which is a tripartite window. The outer bays contain canted bay windows, and most of the other windows are sashes. In the west wing are mullioned and transomed windows. Inside, there are three early fireplaces with original iron grates, plus a fireplace in the basement dating from about 1600, and moved from elsewhere.
