Boroughbridge Hall

Boroughbridge Hall is a large house believed to have been built during the reign of James II. It stands on the site of three burgage houses and incorporates parts of them. Photographs from 1947 show the house in a dilapidated state with five irregular Dutch gables and a projecting porch, both of which have since been removed, reducing the height from three to two storeys. The photographs also reveal pilasters at the second floor cill level, a wide projecting band at the first floor, and a high plinth, all of which are still visible beneath the rendering that now covers the house. The building is constructed of brick and has a modern hipped tile roof. It features two storeys and eleven bays, with tall sash windows. Inside, the front hall contains early 17th-century panelling and a rebuilt staircase that includes stout turned balusters of 17th-century design.
