Gillingwood Hall

Gillingwood Hall is a historic building in Gilling West, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The first Gillingwood Hall was a country house, built by the Wharton family in the early 17th century. It was partly rebuilt in the mid 18th century, possibly to the designs of Daniel Garrett. The house burned down in 1750, although various outbuildings survived. In about 1800, a farmhouse was built on the site, also named "Gillingwood Hall". The farmhouse was grade II listed in 1969. The farmhouse is built of stone, with a T-shaped plan. The main block has two storeys, three bays, and a stone slate roof with stone coping. It has a sill band, and in the centre is a re-used doorcase with an architrave and a fanlight, over which is a blank panel, and a pediment on consoles, and in the upper floor are sash windows. To the right is a lower two-storey bay that has a pantile roof with stone slates at the eaves. Further to the right is a single-storey bay, and at the rear is a wing on the right. The front doorway of the old hall survives, set into a wall. It has a rounded arch, and an archivolt rising from capitals. This is surrounded by fluted Roman Doric engaged columns, and a Doric entablature with guttae, triglyphs, metopes with paterae, and mutules with an acanthus motif, surmounted by a pediment. The stone wall extends for about 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) on each side, and part of a window survives in the right wall. The structure is grade II listed.
