Robin Hood's Bay Museum is a museum in a historic building in Robin Hood's Bay, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
The building was originally constructed as a cottage, possibly in the 17th century. In 1891, it was purchased by R. J. Cooper, the vicar of St Stephen's Church, Fylingdales, who converted the downstairs room into space for a coroner, and added an extension to house a mortuary. By 1900, it had been wholly remodelled, and it was used as a library and reading room, while still remaining available for use by a coroner. The library closed in 1987, and the building became a museum. It houses a collection of material relating to the history of the village. The building has been grade II listed since 1969. [1] [2] [3]
The building is constructed of stone with a string course, and a swept pantile roof with a stone ridge, and coping and a kneeler on the left. There are two storeys and two bays, and a single-storey entrance bay on the left. To the left of the main block is a doorway with a hollow-chamfered surround and a flattened ogee lintel. Above is a single-light window, and in the right bay are mullioned windows. The entrance bay is gabled and contains a similar doorway, above which is a round-headed window and a cross finial. [2]
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.

Ince Blundell Hall is a former country house near the village of Ince Blundell, in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton, Merseyside, England. It was built between 1720 and 1750 for Robert Blundell, the lord of the manor, and was designed by Henry Sephton, a local mason-architect. Robert's son, Henry, was a collector of paintings and antiquities, and he built impressive structures in the grounds of the hall in which to house them. In the 19th century the estate passed to the Weld family. Thomas Weld Blundell modernised and expanded the house, and built an adjoining chapel. In the 1960s the house and estate were sold again, and have since been run as a nursing home by the Canonesses of St. Augustine of the Mercy of Jesus.
