Biddlesden Park House

Biddlesden Park House is a country house dated 1731, as indicated by the rainwater heads. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a plinth, chamfered quoins, a first-floor band course, a cornice, and a panelled parapet. The house has a hipped slate roof and square stone chimneys topped with entablatures. It stands two storeys high with an attic and has a south front with nine bays, where the outer two bays on each side project. The windows are barred sash with keyblocks, and there is a central Doric porch with a pediment. The north front is similar, featuring a Gibbs surround to the central door and niches in the return walls. A service wing is attached to the northeast angle.

Inside, there is a staircase from around 1730 with turned balusters, fluted Corinthian newel columns, and open strings with moulded panels on scroll brackets. The front rooms contain re-used fluted Tuscan columns and 19th-century plasterwork. A room at the rear features mid-18th-century wooden panelling with a moulded cornice, doorcase, and a re-assembled chimney-piece. The house was built on the site of a Cistercian Priory founded in 1147.
