SE 35 SE SPOFFORTH WITH STOCKELD HARROGATE ROAD (south side, off) 3/78 Massey Garth and Chantry House
30/3/66
II
2 houses. C18 and C19 with C13 remains. Coursed gritstone, Westmorland slate and C20 pantile roofs. 2 storeys, 3 parallel ranges, the central range with C13 features being part of Massey Garth, the rear range belonging to The Chantry house, both with lower eaves. Massey Garth: 3 bays. C19 facade with C20 porch and 16-pane sashes. Chantry House: 3 bays with central round-arched doorway with hollow mouldings and C20 columns flanked by 20-pane sash windows with side-sliding sashes over. Interior: the partition wall between front and rear ranges of Massey Garth has a blocked round-headed arch with paired attached columns. A blocked round-headed arch also in the rear wall of the rear range, but visible only from Chantry House. The structure of the middle range is therefore probably the remains of the house of a Chantry Priest attached to Spofforth church (qv).
