New Hall

New Hall is a house that has been divided into three separate homes. It was built in the 17th century for the Hodgson family and underwent alterations and changes to its windows in the 19th century. The building is constructed of coursed gritstone with a stone slate roof and features quoins. It stands three stories tall and has a two-window gable entrance facade facing west, which includes a central 19th-century doorway. There is a continuous dripmould above the first-floor windows, and the ground and first-floor windows have been replaced with 19th-century sashes. On the upper floor, there are two attractive three-light stone mullion windows, also with dripmoulds.

The east side of the building is said to have an original doorway with chamfered jambs and a four-centred arched lintel. On the south side, there is a 19th-century doorway located to the left of the center, along with a blocked loading door to the left of center on the first floor, and other blocked openings that were likely former mullioned windows. The windows on this side include four-pane and plate-glass sashes. The north front also has blocked windows and possibly loading doors to the right of center, while a mullioned window remains on the first floor to the left. A central ridge stack is present on the roof.

Inside, the ground floor at the west end features a very fine 17th-century re-set carved wood fire surround with fluted pilasters and a cornice, with a central pilaster adjusted to fit its current position. The ceiling cross beams have deep chamfers. The interior is also reputed to contain timber-framed partitions with original door lintels, although the roof structure is from the 19th century, featuring double queen-post trusses.

Historically, this building was added to a medieval timber-framed house, now known as Stank Hall, after Christopher Hodgson of York, who was the attorney to the Council of the North, purchased the Beeston estate. John Hodgson of New Hall was mentioned in Charles I's charter for the Borough of Leeds. In the 18th century, the property was likely tenanted and divided; the Denison family owned it by the middle of the century, and by the early 19th century, it belonged to the Beckett family.
