Description: | Late 15th/early 16th century tower house; restored in 1979. Excavation uncovered the remains of a hall and cross wing, probably built in the late 14th/early 15th century; the extant tower replaced the west cross wing. The tower was extended to the south shortly after but this extension was demolished in the late 16th/early 17th century and replaced by a new, larger hall. The house was extended again during the 18th century, but the hall was demolished in the early 19th century. The current Clifton Hall Farmhouse was built in the late 18th or early 19th century. It has a Roman carved slab built into one wall. | Subjects: | Defence Agriculture And Subsistence Farm Building Cross Wing House Religious Ritual And Funerary Farmhouse Tower House Domestic Inscribed Stone Hall House | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | National Monuments Record | Identifier: | http://pastscape.english-heritage.org.uk... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
