2 Houses, formerly the main range of the Old Hall. Dated 1655 and 1677, with C18 alterations and restoration c1920. For the Symondson family. Limestone rubble, graduated stone slate roof. 2 storeys, 5 first-floor windows; the 2 to the left belonging to Carn Cottage, the 3 to the right to Wellside. Quoins. Carn Cottage: boarded outer double doors to right of centre; deeply chamfered single block jambs and cambered doorhead with lintel dated "LS 1655" in raised letters, remains of hood mould over. C20 small-pane windows throughout, 2 to the left of door and 1 to right, and to first floor; all in plain stone surrounds apart from that to left of door which has a reused recessed chamfered surround. Ridge stacks to left and right of entrance. Interior not inspected at resurvey. Wellside: central boarded outer double doors, glazed inner door; flanking flat-faced mullion window of 3 stepped lights, square windows above, all with C20 small-pane frames. Corniced ashlar stack right. A stone plaque at first floor level, between the 2 houses, has a weathered inscription and the date "1677". Rear: a glazed door right of centre in chamfered surround; random fenestration, some reused chamfered surrounds. A stone sundial plaque dated "1677" is set high up above the doorway. History: The Old Hall, Starbotton was occupied by the Symondson family in the C17, Lister Symondson being keeper of the deer at Buckden, in 1600. In the mid C17 the house is said to have been used by Lady Ann Clifford (d.1670) as a resting place during her journeys from Skipton Castle to her estates in Westmorland. The 1655 date may record a new building, possibly by Lister Symondson, but the 1677 date could record the construction of a large chimney stack and other embellishments. The range appears to have been divided into cottages c1800, and restoration was undertaken c1920.
