with early C19 staircase.
South-east hall range: 2-bay 2-storey open hall, reconstructed

openings. Exterior to south-west completely rebuilt.
Extension of c1600 to south-east survives largely intact.

Restoration carried out c1990 by the York Archaeological
Trust, when much of the building was taken down and a complete
restoration of the medieval and late medieval fabric carried

replaced.
