Christ Church, Skipton

Christ Church is an Anglican parish church in Skipton, a town in North Yorkshire, in England. The church was built between 1837 and 1839, to a design by Robert Dennis Chantrell, at a cost of £6,260 5s. 4d. In January 1839, a storm damaged the roof and blew in the west windows, but they were repaired in time for the consecration in September. In 1840, it was given a parish, split from that of Holy Trinity Church, Skipton. A parsonage was added nearby in 1846, and stained glass windows were installed between 1844 and 1854. An organ was installed in 1905, which was constructed by Harrison & Harrison. The building has been grade II* listed since 1978. Parish rooms were added on the south side in 1982, and in 2010, the building was renovated at a cost of £140,000, the work including the removal of the pews and the installation of a semi-sprung floor with underfloor heating. The church is built of sandstone and freestone with a slate roof. It consists of a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a chancel with a clerestory, aisles and a crypt, and a west tower. The tower has two stages, diagonal buttresses rising to corner pinnacles, and an open arcaded parapet. On the west side is a doorway with a pointed arch, above it is a large three-light window, and the bell openings have two lights and louvres. Inside, the nave, aisles and chancel have plaster rib vaults, that in the chancel is painted and gilded, perhaps by Charles Nicholson in the 1920s. Nicholson also created the south chapel. There is a Gothic reredos, designed by Robert Thompson. See also Grade II* listed churches in North Yorkshire (district) Listed buildings in Skipton References External links Official website
Fountaine's Hospital

Fountaine's Hospital is a historic building in Linton, North Yorkshire, a village in England. The almshouses were built in 1721 with a legacy from Richard Fountaine; initially there were four, flanking a chapel. Their architect is unknown; their design has been ascribed to John Vanbrugh or Nicholas Hawksmoor, but Historic England considers William Wakefield more likely. The building was restored in the 1810s, and was extended to the rear in 1892, adding two further almshouses. It was grade II* listed in 1954. The building is constructed of millstone grit, has stone slate roofs, two storeys and seven bays. The middle bay projects, and at the rear is a two-storey chapel. In the centre is a doorway in a recessed semicircular arch with a moulded and rusticated surround. Above it is a cornice and a round-arched niche with imposts and panelled pilasters. Flanking this are giant pilasters carrying an entablature with triglyphs. Above is a massive cornice with urn-shaped finials flanking a bellcote with a lead cupola and a weathervane. Flanking the central bays are two-bay ranges and projecting pedimented wings. Inside, the chapel fittings date from the 19th century.

Rockingham Kiln

The Rockingham, or Waterloo Kiln in Swinton, in the Rotherham district, in South Yorkshire, England, is a pottery kiln dating from 1815. It formed part of the production centre for the Rockingham Pottery which, in the early 19th century, produced highly-decorative Rococo porcelain. The pottery failed in the mid-19th century, and the kiln is one of the few remaining elements of the Rockingham manufactory. It is a Grade II* listed building and forms part of the Rockingham Works Scheduled monument. The kiln was previously on the Historic England Heritage at Risk Register. History The original factory on the Swinton site produced simple earthenware pottery. The first recorded operator was a Joseph Flint, who in the 1740s was renting the site from the Marquess of Rockingham. A partnership with the Leeds Pottery failed and was dissolved by 1806. The subsequent owners, the Brameld family, built the Rockingham Kiln, and other structures on the site, in 1815. The date, the year of the Battle of Waterloo, led to the kiln's alternative name, the Waterloo Kiln. Despite the Brameld's investigations into the production of high-quality porcelain, the venture continued to be unsuccessful and the firm was extricated from a further bankruptcy in 1826 only by the intervention of William Fitzwilliam, 4th Earl Fitzwilliam, who had inherited the Wentworth Woodhouse estate from his uncle, the second Marquess of Rockingham. The Earl's patronage, permitting the use of the Rockingham name and family crest, together with providing direct financial support, saw the Rockingham Pottery develop into a major producer of elaborate rococo-style porcelain, which enjoyed royal endorsement at home and considerable sales abroad. The factory produced major pieces including a full desert service for William IV which took eight years to complete. Ruth Harman, in her 2017 revised volume, Yorkshire West Riding: Sheffield and the South, of the Pevsner Buildings of England series, notes that "perfection was their undoing" and by 1842 the Rockingham firm was again bankrupt and the site was closed. The Pottery Ponds site is administered by Rotherham Museums. The kiln was on Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register from 2022 until it was taken off in November 2025. Recent interest in the Rockingham Works has seen the erection of a commemorative sculpture in Swinton in 2003, and a community heritage project at the site in 2021, directed by the artist Carlos Cortes. Architecture and description The Rockingham Kiln is believed to be the only surviving such pottery kiln in Yorkshire, and one of the few remaining in England. The 17 metres (56 ft) high kiln is bottle-shaped and is constructed in English Bond red brick. Harman records that the structure is more accurately described as a "bottle-shaped brick oven [containing] a kiln". The kiln is a Grade II* listed building and forms part of the Rockingham Works Scheduled monument. Notes References Sources Harman, Ruth; Pevsner, Nikolaus (2017).

Carnanton House

Carnanton House is a Georgian country house in Mawgan-in-Pydar, Cornwall, England. It stands in a wooded estate at the head of the Lanherne valley adjacent to Newquay Airport and is a Grade II* listed building. History The house was built circa 1710 and remodelled in the early 1800s with later modifications around 1830 and again later in the century. It is built in three floors, to an originally rectangular floor plan, of coursed slatestone with granite dressings and a hipped slate roof. The original entrance led to a large hall with principal rooms to the right and left with the service rooms to the rear. Around 1830 the entrance was moved to the right side and the room to the right was remodelled to serve as an entrance hall. A single-storey range with three rooms was added to the right of the new entrance front at the same time. Around mid-century the building was extended at was now the rear with more service rooms and a lateral corridor was added. A new chimney stack was added for the kitchen as well. In addition a large wing was built to the rear left that enclosed a small service yard and a one-room wing was added at the left end. Owners Built for the Willyams family, the house has descended in that same family for the last 300 years or so, being presently owned by their descendants, the Young-Jamiesons. During that time members of the owning family have served as High Sheriff of Cornwall and as MP for Truro. The house is currently owned by Paul Young-Jamieson and has no public access, although the grounds are regularly used for organised game bird shooting.

Elle se trouve dans un domaine boisé, au sommet de la vallée de Lanherne, à proximité de l'aéroport de Newquay, et est un monument classé de Grade II*. Histoire La maison a été construite vers 1710 et rénovée au début des années 1800 avec des modifications ultérieures vers 1830 et à nouveau plus tard au cours du siècle. Elle est construite sur trois étages, sur un plan d’étage à l’origine rectangulaire, dont l'assise est faite en ardoise avec des ornements en granite et un toit en croupe fait d'ardoise. L'entrée d'origine donnait sur un grand hall à partir duquel on accédait aux pièces principales à droite et à gauche et aux pièces de service à l'arrière. Vers 1830, l'entrée fut déplacée du côté droit et la pièce de droite fut réaménagée pour servir de hall d'entrée. Un long bâtiment d'un étage composé de trois pièces fut ajoutée à la droite de la nouvelle entrée par la même occasion. Vers le milieu du siècle, le bâtiment a été agrandi à l'arrière avec plus de salles de service et un couloir latéral a été ajouté. Une nouvelle cheminée a également été ajoutée pour la cuisine. De plus, une grande aile a été construite à l'arrière gauche, fermant une petite cour de service et une aile d'une pièce a été ajoutée à l'extrémité gauche. Propriétaires Construite pour la famille Willyams, la maison est léguée de génération en génération aux membres de cette famille depuis 300 ans, étant actuellement possédée par un de ses descendants, Young-Jamiesons. Pendant toute cette durée, les membres de la famille en possession du lieu ont servi comme Hauts Sheriffs de Cornouailles et comme parlementaires de la ville de Truro. La maison est actuellement détenu par Paul Young-Jamieson et n'offre aucun accès au public, bien que les terres soient régulièrement utilisées afin d'organiser des sessions de tir d'oiseaux.

Dalton Mills

Dalton Mills is a 19th-century Grade II* Victorian former textile mill located in Keighley, West Yorkshire, England. It was roughly 45,681 sq ft (4,243.9 m2) in size. Previously used as a set for Peaky Blinders, it was once claimed to be the largest textile mill in Yorkshire, massing over 2,000 employees. The internal parts of the building were destroyed by a large fire that broke out on 3 March 2022. History Dalton Mills was constructed in 1869 by Joseph Craven and was designed as a worsted mill and as a replacement for the former Strong Close Mill, owned by Rachel Leach. The mill was named after Dalton, who was the manager employed by Leach. It was said to be the largest textile mill in Yorkshire, having over 2,000 employees. Due to the decline of the textile industry, the mill was virtually empty up until 2004. John Craven, the great-great-grandson of Joseph Craven, eventually sold the mill to Magna Holdings to ensure its permanence. In 2015, the building was taken off English Heritage's at-risk register after being partially restored due to falling in disrepair. The building was used as a set for multiple series, including Peaky Blinders and Downton Abbey. 2011 fire On 1 January 2011 at around 6:50 pm GMT, a fire broke out at Dalton Mills with around 100 firefighters at the scene, destroying parts of the building. The West Yorkshire Fire Service treated the outbreak as "suspicious" with Chris Clarke stating that the fire was started by a group of people who were not permitted to be there. The outbreak was later confirmed to be an arson attack by copper thieves as they attempted to burn the insulation off so as to steal the metal. 2022 fire On 3 March 2022 at around 12 pm GMT, an inferno broke out, engulfing and damaging the entire building and completely destroying the interior, along with the floor and roof. More than 100 firefighters were reported at the scene and were sent with 20 pumps, according to the West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service. The fire service informed nearby residents of the fire, telling them to keep windows and doors shut and to avoid travelling. The Leisure Centre in Keighley was opened up by the Bradford council to provide shelter to affected residents. The fire was deemed extinguished on 6 March at 3:30 pm GMT. The incident was described to be "a sad loss to the Yorkshire filmmaking landscape" by Richard Knight with Screen Yorkshire. West Yorkshire Police stated that five suspects were arrested over the suspected arson attack and were being questioned. They were later released on bail, with further inquiries pending. After the fire, it was assumed that the mill would have to be torn down due to safety concerns. However, an inspection conducted by Historic England confirmed that the mill is stable and does not need to be demolished, but stated that the future of it has yet to be decided. 2025 fire On 26 July 2025 a further fire occurred at the site as a result of Arson. The mills are currently in a state of "in near collapse" according to its owners.

Ingleborough Hall

Ingleborough Hall is a historic building in Clapham, North Yorkshire, a village in England. The house was built in about 1814 for James Farrer, to a design by William Atkinson. In 1894, one of James Farrer's descendents, Reginald Farrer, created a rock garden in the grounds, which he continued to work on until his death in 1920. The house was Grade II* listed in 1958. It was later purchased by Bradford City Council, which ran it as an outdoor activity centre, mostly used for school trips. In 2024, the council proposed selling off the building, which it claimed required expensive maintenance. The house is built of stone with sill bands and a hipped slate roof, and has two storeys. The south garden front has seven bays, the central three bays forming a two-storey domed bow window, with four giant engaged Greek Doric columns and an entablature, and it contains three French windows. The west entrance front has three bays, and has a massive portico of engaged Doric columns in antis, and a projecting entablature with triglyphs, metopes, and a cornice with guttae. The ground floor windows in both fronts are sashes, and in the upper floor they are casements. Inside, the main staircase is original, and moulded cornices survive in the main ground floor rooms.

St Mewan’s Church

St Mewan ist eine anglikanische Pfarrkirche der Church of England in der gleichnamigen Ortschaft am westlichen Ortsrand von St Austell in Cornwall. Die Kirche ist seit 1967 als Kulturdenkmal der Kategorie Grade-II* eingestuft. Geschichte Die dem heiligen Mevennus, dem Gründer der Abtei Saint-Méen-le-Grand in der Bretagne, geweihte Kirche geht im Kern auf ein romanisches Bauwerk aus dem 12. Jahrhundert zurück, wurde aber in der Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts grundlegend umgebaut. Um 1851 erfolgte eine Wiederherstellung durch G.E. Street. Älteste Teile der Kirche stellen, allerdings mit Überformungen der Bauarbeiten des 15. Jahrhunderts, das Langhaus und der Chorraum dar. Aus dieser gotischen Bauperiode stammt auch das nördliche Seitenschiff des Chors. Später im Verlauf des 15. Jahrhunderts wurden das südliche Seitenschiff sowie die Vorhalle hinzugefügt. Die Errichtung der zwei Stockwerke des massiven Westturms wird in das späte 15. Jahrhundert datiert. Bei den Baumaßnahmen unter G.E. Street 1851 erfolgte die Errichtung eines nördlichen Querhauses.

St John the Baptist's Church, Low Bentham

St John the Baptist's Church is the parish church of Low Bentham, a settlement in North Yorkshire, in England. A church in Bentham was recorded in the Domesday Book. It is believed to have been destroyed during a Scottish raid in the early 14th century. The oldest parts of the current church, the tower and the chancel arch, date from the 1340 rebuild. The church was restored in 1822, and then largely rebuilt by Richard Norman Shaw between 1876 and 1878. A porch and new main door were added in 1891. The church was Grade II* listed in 1958. In 2023, a kitchen and toilets were installed, and the pews were replaced by chairs. The church is built of stone with a slate roof. It consists of a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a north porch, a chancel with a north vestry and a south chapel, and a west tower. The tower is in Perpendicular style, with three stages, diagonal buttresses, and a west doorway above which is a three light window. The two-light bell openings have trefoil heads with mouchettes in the spandrels, and hood moulds, and at the top is an embattled parapet with four crocketed pinnacles. One 15th century window survives in the south wall of the chancel, and two in the south chapel. In the south chapel wall is a sundial dating from about 1800. The font was designed by William Lethaby and dates from about 1890. The pulpit is by Shaw, and there is a king post roof dating from his restoration. The reredos was designed by Shaw and carved by Thomas Earp. The walls have majolica tiles manufactured by Maw & Co, and there are several windows with stained glass by Heaton, Butler and Bayne. A south aisle window incorporates a stone crucifix which probably dates from the 13th century. The building contains a coffin slab dating from about 1340; the Kirkbeck Stone dating from the 17th century; and a 15th-century bell hanging in the porch. The church reputedly has the heaviest peal of six bells in Yorkshire, and together weigh 7,500 pounds (3,400 kg). The old organ, which is no longer playable, was built by William Hill of London as a "house organ" for Walker Joy, a prosperous oil merchant in Leeds; his brother designed a hydraulic engine to pump the bellows, making it the first ever to be blown by mechanical power. The organ is due to be removed. The churchyard contains a memorial to Robert Poole, a gravedigger, consisting of a sculptured shovel leaning against a tree trunk.

St Matthew's Church, Ipswich

St Matthew's Church, Ipswich is a Church of England parish church in Ipswich, Suffolk, England. The church is a Grade II* listed building of medieval origin. St Matthew's Parish In medieval Ipswich, St Matthew's Church was the parish church for St Matthew's Parish. This constituted part of West Ward, Ipswich, along with the parishes of St Mary-le-Tower and St Mary at the Elms. St Matthew’s Church was first recorded in the 12th century, but much of the work to create the present building was carried out in the 14th and 15th centuries. It was then enlarged in phases in the 19th century during its time as the garrison church for the Ipswich barracks. The church's eight-panelled font dates from the 16th century and depicts the story of Mary and the baptism of Jesus. It was paid for by the vicar of the time, John Bailey. References
Settle Quaker Meeting House

The Settle Quaker Meeting House is a historic building in Settle, North Yorkshire, a town in England. Quakers began meeting in Settle in the 1650s, from 1661 at Howson's Croft, possible in a barn. In 1678, they built a dedicated meeting house and stable, at a cost of £80. Between 1729 and 1732, the roof was raised, enabling the insertion of a gallery, initially used as a women's meeting room. The interior was rearranged in about 1800. In the 1860s, an extension was constructed to the rear of the meeting house, serving initially as a schoolroom, but in 1872 a separate school was built, and it served as a library and reading room. A kitchen and toilet were added in 1927, and this enabled the building to be used by evacuees during World War II. In 2004, the kitchen was demolished and a new extension was constructed, while the floor of the rear extension was lowered. The building has been grade II* listed since 1988. The meeting house is built of stone with sandstone dressings, a string course, and slate roofs. It has two storeys, and a later single-storey extension. On the right is a gabled porch containing a doorway with a cambered timber lintel. The windows are a mix of casements and sashes. Inside, there is a large meeting room with a plain panelled dado, a north gallery reached by a staircase from the west wing, and an Elder's stand to the south. It contains 19th-century furniture.

Trappes Hall

Trappes Hall is a historic building in Carleton-in-Craven, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The house was built in about 1686 by Christopher Trappes, when he married into a local family. It passed down the generations until one owner was involved in the Jacobite rebellions, forfeiting the property to the Crown. Its later history is unknown, but it was divided into two cottages, probably in the 19th century. It was Grade II* listed in 1954. The house is built of stone, with a stone slate roof. It has two storeys and a large attic, and a nearly square plan. It contains two large mullioned and transomed windows, and smaller mullioned windows, and in the attics are large gabled dormers. It appears that there was originally a central doorway on the north side, but this was blocked when the house was divided, and there are now three 19th-century doors, one to the north and two to the south. There is a large, central chimney, with fireplaces in both the former main room and parlour.

St Peter's Church, Ipswich

St Peter's Church (also known as St Peter's by the Waterfront) is one of the twelve medieval churches in the ancient borough of Ipswich, England. An Augustinian priory dedicated to St Peter and Paul occupied a six-acre site to the north and east of the church. As the secular canons regularly used the chancel for religious purposes, leaving the nave for use of parishioners, the church was also known as St Peter and Paul's. The church is located between College Street and Star Lane, with St Peters Street leading north into Ipswich town centre. History The location is probably that of the earliest church building in Ipswich, there being a St Peter's church mentioned in Domesday Book. The church was located just north of a ford by which visitors arriving in Ipswich could cross the River Orwell. On 8 January 1297, Edward I married his youngest daughter Elizabeth of Rhuddlan to John I, Count of Holland in this earlier church. The existing structure was built in 1460 and contains a Tournai font, which dates from c. 1170–90. Heritage centre The building was restored with a Heritage Lottery grant in 2006. The Ipswich Hospital Band received £772,000. The building was reopened in 2008 as a heritage centre and is maintained by the Ipswich Historic Churches Trust. References
