Description

The Behrens Mausoleum is an early 20th-century mausoleum located in New Malton Cemetery, built for the Behrens Family of Swinton Grange. It features pebble dash on a brick plinth, with ashlar dressings, and has overhanging bracketed eaves that support a hipped and sprocketed tiled roof. The mausoleum is rectangular in shape and includes a chamfered plinth band and battered angle buttresses.

On the east front, there is one storey and one bay, highlighted by a quoined hollow-chamfered round-arched doorcase with a hoodmould, which contains double doors with attached panelling. The west front is obscured by ivy. Both the north and south fronts have one storey and two bays, each featuring two three-light windows with cusped ogee-arched tracery set within square-headed quoined architraves.
