Northcliffe House is a historic building in Filey, a town in North Yorkshire, in England.
The original Northcliffe House was built for the wine merchant William Voase, in about 1830, and it was greatly extended in the late 1840s. In 1890, it was purchased by E. Clarke, who commissioned Walter Brierley to demolish the existing building and construct a new house. This was completed in 1892, and is in the Jacobethan style. In 1925, the house was purchased by the National Union of Printing, Bookbinding and Paper Workers, which used it as a convalescent home for its members. It later sold the house for conversion into apartments. The rear part of the gardens, containing an orangery, was sold off to become the public Northcliffe Gardens, while the orangery was demolished. [1] The building was grade II listed in 1985. [2]
The house is built of sandstone, with a moulded floor band, and a tile roof with coped gables and ball finials. It has two storeys and attics, and a front of five bays. The porch has a basket arch, over which is a dated cartouche and an embattled parapet. The right bay is gabled and contains a canted bay window with an embattled parapet. The windows are mullioned, those in the ground floor also with transoms, and there are 20th-century dormers. At the rear is a three-storey embattled tower, and a three-storey canted bay window. The former service range includes a kitchen with a conical roof. Some Arts and Crafts-style wrought iron fittings survive. [2] [3]

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.

Corn exchanges are distinct buildings which were originally created as a venue for corn merchants to meet and arrange pricing with farmers for the sale of wheat, barley, and other corn crops. The word "corn" in British English denotes all cereal grains, such as wheat and barley. With the repeal of the Corn Laws in 1846, a large number of corn exchanges were built in England, particularly in the corn-growing areas of Eastern England.
Grimethorpe Hall is a manor house in Grimethorpe, South Yorkshire, England. Built circa 1670 for Robert Seaton, it is thought to be in the style of York architect Robert Trollope. Around 1800 the hall passed to John Farrar Crookes of Tunbridge Wells. It was last used as a house in the 1960s and afterwards was purchased by the National Coal Board. The National Coal Board applied to demolish it in 1981 but, after a campaign by the Ancient Monuments Society, this was unsuccessful. The structure received statutory protection as a grade II* listed building in 1985.
