SE 35 NW SCRIVEN THE GREEN (west side, off) Old Scriven

5/72 Scriven Hall (formerly listed as The Coach House) 15.3.66 - II

Former stables and coach-house, now house. 1682 for Sir Thomas Slingsby, converted in 1966. Coursed gritstone rubble, ashlar details, graduated stone slate roof. 2 storeys, 7 x 1 bays. Plinth and quoins. West side: 3 steps up to central C20 glazed doors in a chamfered round archway with imposts and keystone, all in a raised ashlar panel. A segmental broken pediment above, with shield of the Slingsby family. 2-light chamfered mullion windows with raised quoined jambs throughout, those to ground floor not original with exception to far left, those to first floor restored and that over door considerably wider than the others. Moulded first-floor string which continues around left return. Moulded eaves cornice, hipped roof. Stone stack to ridge, left of bays 2; rendered stack bay 5. Rear: central C20 panelled door in chamfered shallow-pointed arch surmounted by a coat of arms and a fragment of a chamfered moulding. The fenestration is C20, matching south front. Blocked first-floor opening to left; to left of entrance the walling is carried up in ashlar above the eaves to form a bellcote with clock and weathervane. The bell is under a moulded arch surmounted by an ogee finial, flanked by columns with moulded triangular tops. Left return: 3-light mullion window to ground and first floor, the upper window having recessed chamfers. Right return: 2-piece lintel to a shallow chamfered 4-centred archway with glazed door; inserted windows. Interior: the south room ceiling is divided by a spine beam and 2 cross beams with ovolo- and cavetto-moulded plasterwork. Attached range to rear right not of special interest. The building contract dated 1682 survives. The south room was the Grand Stable, the remainder was stabling, botheys and lofts, with 3 doorways on the south side. Part of the building was used as a brewhouse during the C19 and during that time the range was used as a farm outbuilding. Scriven Hall of c1730 was west of this range. During the Second World War the Hall was requisitioned for a total of 13 years and after damage by fire it was demolished in 1954. The Slingsby estate was sold in 1965 and the outbuildings converted, the carved stone on the coach house coming from the hall; the house was Lot 1 in the Sale Catalogue where a photograph records its appearance prior to conversion. Jackson-Stops and Staff, Sale 16 September 1965.
