Wealden Hall, York
The Wealden Hall is a grade I listed building on Goodramgate in the city centre of York, in England. The building was constructed in about 1500. It is a wealden hall house, which by the date was a common design in South East England, but rare in York. The Wealden Hall and 1 Tanner Row, also in the city, are the two northernmost surviving examples of wealden halls. Using the standard wealden hall design, the building originally had a central hall, with double storey bays either side. In this case, the design was end-on to the street, and, unusually, only the front bays were jettied. In front of the hall, a three-storey range was constructed to face the street. Remain of two windows survive from the original construction, although they were originally unglazed and probably closed with shutters. The rear never had any openings, suggesting that it may have directly abutted another structure. The size of the house, and its jettying, suggests that it was built for a wealthy ow ...

Hall Wealden York 5
In architecture, a hall is a relatively large space enclosed by a roof and walls. In the Iron Age and early Middle Ages in northern Europe, a mead hall was where a lord and his retainers ate and also slept. Later in the Middle Ages, the great hall was the largest room in castles and large houses, and where the servants usually slept. As more complex house plans developed, the hall remained a large room for dancing and large feasts, often still with servants sleeping there. It was usually immediately inside the main door. In modern British houses, an entrance hall next to the front door remains an indispensable feature, even if it is essentially merely a corridor. Today, the (entrance) hall of a house is the space next to the front door or vestibule leading to the rooms directly and/or indirectly. Where the hall inside the front door of a house is elongated, it may be called a passage, corridor (from Spanish ''corredor'' used in El Escorial and 100 years later in Castle Ho ...

Grade I Listed Building
In the United Kingdom, a listed building or listed structure is one that has been placed on one of the four statutory lists maintained by Historic England in England, Historic Environment Scotland in Scotland, in Wales, and the Northern Ireland Environment Agency in Northern Ireland. The term has also been used in the Republic of Ireland, where buildings are protected under the Planning and Development Act 2000. The statutory term in Ireland is " protected structure". A listed building may not be demolished, extended, or altered without special permission from the local planning authority, which typically consults the relevant central government agency, particularly for significant alterations to the more notable listed buildings. In England and Wales, a national amenity society must be notified of any work to a listed building which involves any element of demolition. Exemption from secular listed building control is provided for some buildings in current use for worship, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Goodramgate
Goodramgate is a street in the city centre of York, in England. History The area now covered by Goodramgate lay within the walls of Roman Eboracum. The street runs diagonally across the line of former Roman buildings, from the Porta Decumana (now King's Square) to the Porta Principalis Sinistra (now Monk Bar). Anglo-Saxon artifacts have been found in the area, while its name dates from the Viking Jorvik era, being named after someone called "Guthrum" or "Gutherun". The street was first recorded in about 1180. In the Mediaeval period, the street lay in the parish of Holy Trinity Church, although since 1316 the church has been hidden from the street, behind Lady Row. The precinct of York Minster lay immediately north of the street, and until the early 19th-century, was entered through a gateway. Part of this may survive in the rebuilt structure at the entrance to College Street. The original site of the York Dominican Friary may have been on the street, although it moved ...

York
York is a cathedral city with Roman origins, sited at the confluence of the rivers Ouse and Foss in North Yorkshire, England. It is the historic county town of Yorkshire. The city has many historic buildings and other structures, such as a minster, castle, and city walls. It is the largest settlement and the administrative centre of the wider City of York district. The city was founded under the name of Eboracum in 71 AD. It then became the capital of the Roman province of Britannia Inferior, and later of the kingdoms of Deira, Northumbria, and Scandinavian York. In the Middle Ages, it became the northern England ecclesiastical province's centre, and grew as a wool-trading centre. In the 19th century, it became a major railway network hub and confectionery manufacturing centre. During the Second World War, part of the Baedeker Blitz bombed the city; it was less affected by the war than other northern cities, with several historic buildings being gutted and restore ...

Wealden Hall House
The Wealden hall house is a type of vernacular medieval timber-framed hall house traditional in the south east of England. Typically built for a yeoman, it is most common in Kent (hence "Wealden" for the once densely forested Weald) and the east of Sussex but has also been built elsewhere. Kent has one of the highest concentrations of such surviving medieval timber-framed buildings in Europe. The original floor plan usually had four bays with the two central ones forming the main hall open to the roof with the hearth in the middle and two doors to the outside at one end forming a cross passage. The open hearth was later moved towards the cross passage and became a fireplace with chimney, sometimes the chimney pile even blocking the cross passage, which had soon been screened off the main hall. Beyond the cross passage the outer bay at the "screens end" or "lower end" of the hall, usually contained two rooms commonly called buttery and pantry, while the rooms in the bay at ...

1 Tanner Row
1 Tanner Row is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The building was originally constructed in the late 15th century, as a Wealden hall house, which by the date was a common design in South East England, but rare in York. 1 Tanner Row and the Wealden Hall, also in the city, are the two northernmost surviving examples of Wealden halls. As built, it had a large open hall, with a two-storey block on the east, and another to the west which could not be accessed from the hall. In the 17th century, the hall and the east block were divided to form two tenements. As part of the conversion, a floor was added to divide the hall vertically, and it was extended to jetty out, matching the east and west blocks. A central chimney and two staircases were also added. The building was refronted in the 18th century. In the late 19th century, the west block became vacant, and it was demolished in 1929. Around this time, the roof of the remaining part of the buildin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Snickleway Inn
The Snickleway Inn is a grade II* listed pub, in the city centre of York, in England. The pub lies on Goodramgate, next to the Wealden Hall. The oldest part is the front section of the building, constructed about 1500, at the same time as the neighbouring hall. It is three stories high and four bays wide. In the 17th-century, a wing was added, and in the mid-19th century, this was altered, while the building was refronted. To the rear, there is an outbuilding, which was constructed in about 1600, and has been extensively rebuilt in several phases. The whole building is timber-framed throughout, with some brick infill, while the front is plastered over. The building has been used as a pub from at least the 18th-century. It was originally named the "Painters' Arms", then successively became the "Square and Compasses" (), the "Mason's Arms" (c. 1823), "The Board" (c. 1841) and the "Joiner's Arms" (c. 1851). By 1872, it was renamed as the "Anglers' Arms". In ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
York Conservation Trust
The York Conservation Trust is a trust that buys and restores significant historical buildings in York, England, and then makes them available to rent. It was originally an initiative of former Lord Mayor John Bowes Morrell, who started acquiring old buildings when he bought Sir Thomas Herbert's House on Pavement in 1943. Together with his brother, Cuthbert, Morrell set up the Ings Property Company, a not-for-profit exercise in practical conservation. In 1976 this company was given charitable status and evolved into York Conservation Trust. The Trust owns properties throughout York in streets such as Walmgate, Micklegate, Low Ousegate, Goodramgate, Gillygate and Stonegate. Among its portfolio are The Red House in Duncombe Place, the York Assembly Rooms in Blake Street and the De Grey Rooms next to York Theatre Royal and leased to them.

Houses Completed In The 16th Century
A house is a single-unit residential building. It may range in complexity from a rudimentary hut to a complex structure of wood, masonry, concrete or other material, outfitted with plumbing, electrical, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.Schoenauer, Norbert (2000). ''6,000 Years of Housing'' (rev. ed.) (New York: W.W. Norton & Company). Houses use a range of different roofing systems to keep precipitation such as rain from getting into the dwelling space. Houses may have doors or locks to secure the dwelling space and protect its inhabitants and contents from burglars or other trespassers. Most conventional modern houses in Western cultures will contain one or more bedrooms and bathrooms, a kitchen or cooking area, and a living room. A house may have a separate dining room, or the eating area may be integrated into another room. Some large houses in North America have a recreation room. In traditional agriculture-oriented societies, domestic animals such as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
