Langcliffe Hall, Stables and Gatepiers

Langcliffe Hall, Stables and Gatepiers is a large house dated 1602, with alterations from the late 17th century and the 1860s, along with a stable block built around 1710. The building is constructed of slobbered rubble with stone dressings and has a slate roof. The west entrance front features three storeys and four bays. The central entrance is adorned with an elaborate moulded architrave, pendants, urn-like finials, and a decorated lintel, resembling the style found at the Folly in Settle. There is an earlier date stone inscribed ANO:DNI: 160 2H:S E:R:44:1, and a late 19th-century plank door. To the left and right of the entrance are chamfered cross windows with ovolo mullions and transoms, alongside a similar three-light window on the far left, all topped with a continuous hoodmould. The remaining windows, dating from around 1860, are in a 17th-century style and include 19th-century sashes. The end bays on both sides feature gables from around 1860, with a quatrefoil on the left and a trefoil on the right. There is a ridge stack on the left gable end and another to the right of the center. The south garden front, dating from around 1860, is made of rock-faced stone. At the rear, there is a mix of fenestration, including several 17th-century windows: two three-light chamfered mullioned and transomed windows with hoodmoulds, two chamfered cross windows, and two two-light chamfered mullioned windows, one of which has a hoodmould. The interior was extensively remodeled in the 1860s.

The stable block is positioned at a right angle to the entrance front and consists of two storeys with six bays. The entrance, located to the left of center, features a rusticated architrave flanked by Doric pilasters, complete with a frieze and guttae. To the right, there is a carriage entrance with a segmental-arched head, and a smaller entrance to the right of this with a moulded architrave. The ground floor has four cross windows, while the upper floor has six, all with moulded architraves and flat-faced mullions and transoms, fitted with 20th-century casements. A first-floor string course runs along the building, and projecting quoins are present at the left gable end and to the right of the fifth bay. The left gable features coping and shaped kneelers. The gatepiers at the west entrance are topped with large ball finials and are accompanied by 20th-century plank gates. In the garden, there is a re-set lintel dated 1660 with the initials IC, along with a doorway that has a moulded architrave and keystone dated 1712.
