Arnford Farmhouse

Arnford Farmhouse is a historic building in Hellifield, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The farmhouse was constructed in about 1700 as a pair of mirror-image semi-detached houses. Nikolaus Pevsner describes it as "a very remarkable building", and Joan Thirsk argues that it must have been constructed by two heirs to shares of the estate. In the 20th century, the two houses were combined, and in 1958, the building was grade II* listed. The building is constructed of stone with millstone grit dressings, and a stone slate roof with kneelers. It has two storeys and is eight bays wide. Each house has a plinth, and contains a central doorway with a moulded surround, a pulvinated frieze and a moulded hood. It contains cross windows with hood moulds, and a gabled dormer with a chamfered mullioned window, a kneeler and a spike finial. Inside, there is an inglenook fireplace.

Cow Bridge

Cow Bridge is a historic bridge in Long Preston, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The bridge crosses the River Ribble, carrying the B6478 road and the Pennine Bridleway. A bridge on the site was first recorded in 1639, when it was reported as being ruinous, and it was again reported as being in poor condition in 1752. The current bridge is probably late 18th century, while the parapet was rebuilt in the 19th century. It was grade II listed in 1987. It is in stone, and consists of a single segmental arch over the river, and three smaller flanking segmental arches on each side. Between the arches are pilasters, above them is a string course, and the parapet is raked. There are many mason's marks and other symbols carved into the stones.
