GV II

House. Late C15 timber-framing encased in stone with C17 N wall and C19 alterations. Coursed gritstone front wall, rear and S side of brick, stone slate roof. 2 storeys and attic, 2 windows wide. Quoins. Central doorway with overlight, 4-pane sashes. Left return: stone external stack with 2 moulded string courses, widened to accommodate 1st floor fireplace and latrine with 2 corbels. INTERIOR: not inspected but record made 1985 shows 3 pairs of principal posts, bressumer and wallplate with short straight braces, cross-wall close-studded on 1st floor, 2 king-post trusses, ridge with longitudinal brace. The house and barn were first built by the Beeston family, lords of the manor of Beeston, when they established a hunting park here in the later C15. It was known then as 'New Hall', to distinguish it from their manor house in Beeston village; this name was later transferred to the Hodgson's new block (qv) which was originally attached. C19 alterations by the Denison and Beckett families resulted in the creation of 2 tenanted houses. (West Yorkshire Archaeology Service Historic Buildings Report: Stank Hall, Beeston).
