Bootham Grange

Bootham Grange is a pair of large houses, now functioning as a hotel, built around 1840. They are constructed of grey brick and topped with a Welsh slate roof. The building stands three storeys high with cellars and features a symmetrical facade of six bays, with the first bay set back and a contemporary one-storey side wing at the front angle. The facade is accented by corner pilasters with chamfered plinths and Composite capitals.

The round-arched door surrounds for bays four and five include an original six-panel door with a three-pane overlight in bay four, while bay five has a 20th-century replica. The windows are sashes with glazing bars, set under brick arches, and feature projecting sills on the ground floor and moulded sill bands on the upper windows. The eaves overhang with a wooden cornice supported by shaped brackets, and the hipped roof has end stacks and central ridge stacks.

The side wing on the left has a part-glazed door in a wooden doorcase, flanked by sashes with glazing bars under recessed panels, and includes a string course, parapet, and hipped roof. The first bay of the main house has a second-floor window similar to the others and a hipped left end to the roof. The left return has four bays, some of which have blind windows, while the right return is made of red brick.

Inside, both doorways lead into a single lobby, featuring a 20th-century glazed screen wall set back from the entrance, which opens into the stair halls that are stone-paved and connected by a wide archway. The former left house retains its original staircase with a cast-iron balustrade adorned with anthemion and acanthus panels between rods with entwined vines, a coiled handrail, and a rectangular lantern. The former right-hand house does not have a staircase. Each stair hall features a screen with a round arch on columns.

The fireplace in the front-left room is made of grey marble with black Doric columns, while the front-right room has a classical marble fireplace and a Greek-fret ceiling frieze. Bootham Grange is depicted on the first Ordnance Survey map, surveyed in 1850.
