View of the old Manor House, Calverley Old Hall, a grade I listed building, part of which dates from the 15th Century. It was the seat of the Calverley family until the 17th Century. The building with the gable facing is the solar, the oldest part, and has a timber framed structure. In the background far left is the gable of the Chamber block where the notorious Calverley murders took place in 1605. The Chapel, foreground left, and Great Hall, right, date from the late 15th Century. Note the break in the masonry in the Great Hall above the window on the right. This probably dates from when the gable end was rebuilt in the early 18th Century. There are the remains of the original tall window of cinquefoil-headed lights. Calverley Old Hall is now the property of the Landmark Trust. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Calverley Old Hall Woodhall Road Calverley | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
