Westwood Farmhouse

Westwood Farmhouse is a historic building in Ebberston, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The building was constructed in the mid 18th century. It was grade II* listed in 1986, on account of what Historic England describes as its "remarkable panelled fittings", which are particularly well preserved having never been painted. Although fully panelled rooms are rare in smaller houses of this period, features include a moulded bressumer with a shelf and cupboards on the ground floor, and a firehood on the first floor, and overmantels with cupboards on each floor. The two-storey farmhouse is built of limestone, with a floor band, a moulded eaves cornice, and a pantile roof with coped gables and shaped kneelers. There are two storeys, three bays and a rear wing. The central doorway has a divided fanlight, the windows are sashes, and all the openings have lintels with tripartite keystones. Inside, original panelled doors with brass fittings survive throughout, including in the attic. The roof truss is a reused cruck pair. Northwest of the house is a late-18th century, grade II-listed building, comprising a former byre with granary above, a stable, a cartshed and a loose box. The building is in sandstone with quoins and a pantile roof. It has an L-shaped plan, the byre and granary with one storey and a loft, and a single-storey range on the left. The openings include doorways, windows, slit vents and pitching windows. There is an external flight of stone steps.

St Mary's Church, Ebberston

St Mary's Church is the parish church of Ebberston, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The church was built in the 12th century, at which time it appears to have consisted of a nave and chancel. Surviving features from this period include the doorway in the south wall of the nave, and the font. In about 1200, a north aisle was added, while the chancel was largely rebuilt and the nave extended later in the century, and a south chapel was added. The tower probably dates from the 14th century, while around the time of the English Reformation, the chapel was demolished. The building was reroofed in 1797, and the church was restored between 1870 and 1876, by Ewan Christian. He added a porch, and rebuilt the south side of the nave and chancel. The building was grade II* listed in 1953. The church is built of sandstone with a slate roof, and consists of a nave, a north aisle, a south porch, a chancel and a west tower. The tower has two stages, two-light louvred bell openings with trefoil heads and hood moulds, and an embattled parapet. The porch is gabled and the doorway has a round arch, recessed in two orders, with roll-moulding and a scalloped capital. There is a grotesque head on the north wall, which is probably 14th century but in an earlier style.

Ebberston Hall

Ebberston Hall is a Grade I listed country house in Ebberston, North Yorkshire, England. It was constructed during the 18th century for William Thompson. It was subsequently inherited by Sir Charles Hotham-Thompson, 8th Baronet, followed by Beaumont Hotham, 3rd Baron Hotham. It was later purchased by George Osbaldeston, before passing into the ownership (by inheritance from his father who had acquired it in 1941) of West de Wend Fenton. Built as a summer villa and designed by Colen Campbell, the hall is built of sandstone and has been altered. The main front has one storey and a basement, and three bays. The basement extends to form a terrace that is approached by an open staircase, flanked at the bottom by obelisk torch standards. The front has vermiculated rustication. A further flight of steps leads to a central door with pilaster jambs, a radial fanlight, and a rusticated surround with chamfered voussoirs, and a keystone with a mask and a monogram. The doorcase has attached Tuscan columns, and a pediment with a bust of a faun in the tympanum. The outer bays contain sash windows with chamfered voussoirs, and keystones with masks and foliage. At the top is a projecting cornice with a balustrade and corner vases. AT the rear are five bays, the middle three bays containing a Tuscan loggia.
