Barley Hall

E-mail

ImageBarley Hall is a stunning medieval townhouse, once home to the Priors of Nostell and the Mayor of York. Until the 1980's the house was hidden under the relatively modern facade of a derelict office block. Only when the building was going to be destroyed was the amazing medieval building discovered and its history uncovered.

 

The building has now been lovingly restored to its original splendour with stunning high ceilings, beautiful exposed timber frames, and
possibly the only horn window in England. It has been decorated to replicate what it would have looked like as the Snawsell home around
1483 and boasts a magnificent Great Hall. Visitors to Barley Hall can make themselves at home and sit on the chairs and handle the objects
and experience what it would have been like to live in Medieval England.
