Description

Bee-boles located in a field to the south of Ponden Hall are reputedly from the 17th century. They are made of stone and consist of eight rectangular bee-boles, each featuring simple, flat stone lintels and cills. The bee-boles are set into the slope of the field, with four facing south and four facing west. They are referenced in M A Butterfield's work, "The Heatons of Ponden Hall" published in Bradford in 1976, on pages 5 and 11.
