Calverley Old Hall

Later additions include an accommodation wing added in the early 16th century by Sir William Calverley to house his very large family.

Sir William Calverley (died 1506) was summononed to fight Perkin Warbeck's army in Cornwall in September 1497.

[5] His son, William Calverley, captured the Scottish laird of Orchardton at the battle of Solway Moss in 1542,[6] provided 20 soldiers and served as a captain in the campaign in Scotland in 1544.

Full restoration of the site, including the great hall and solar wing, has been a long-term project because of life tenancies.

[12][2] In 2022 the Landmark Trust began restoring areas of Calverley Old Hall, developing the site into self-catering holiday accommodation.

The scheme, drafted by Cowper Griffith Architects and realised by the local Ilkley-based contractors Dobson Construction, has helped remove Calverley Old Hall from the 'Heritage at risk' list.
