5 Minster Yard is a Grade II* listed building in the city of York, North Yorkshire, England.

The building is wholly timber-framed and is located with its south side facing Minster Yard. It originated as part of a two-storey row of tenements, built about 1300, the row also having included what is now 2 College Street. From this period survive parts of some roof trusses and a rafter. The main range may have been rebuilt in about 1500. In about 1600, a large chimney stack was added, with a new staircase to its north, and a two-storey wing was added on the north side of the building. [1] [2]

The building was heavily altered in 1891, with its south wall rebuilt in stone, including a prominent oriel window. The west gable end was also rebuilt on a new alignment, and a third storey was added to the eastern half of the building. Internally, an entrance hall was created, and a new staircase added, reusing balusters from about 1700. The western first floor room has a fireplace surround and panelling dating from about 1600, and the eastern ground and first floor also have wooden panelling. [1] [2]

The building was listed in 1954, along with its garden railings and gate posts. [1]

Capesthorne Hall is a country house near the village of Siddington, Cheshire, England. The house and its private chapel were built in the early 18th century, replacing an earlier hall and chapel nearby. They were built to Neoclassical designs by William Smith and (probably) his son Francis. Later in the 18th century, the house was extended by the addition of an orangery and a drawing room. In the 1830s the house was remodelled by Edward Blore; the work included the addition of an extension and a frontage in Jacobean style, and joining the central block to the service wings. In about 1837 the orangery was replaced by a large conservatory designed by Joseph Paxton. In 1861 the main part of the house was virtually destroyed by fire. It was rebuilt by Anthony Salvin, who generally followed Blore's designs but made modifications to the front, rebuilt the back of the house in Jacobean style, and altered the interior. There were further alterations later in the 19th century, including remodelling of the Saloon. During the Second World War the hall was used by the Red Cross, but subsequent deterioration prompted a restoration.
