Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries the property reverted to the Crown and was granted to the Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk, who sold it to Henry Goodricke in 1542.

[4] Henry Goodricke was succeeded by his son Richard, who became High Sheriff of Yorkshire for 1579–80, and died in 1581.

As a Royalist Sir John suffered in the Civil War, being fined and then imprisoned in the Tower of London, from where he escaped to France.

He bequeathed the estate to Francis Littleton Holyoake of Studley Castle on condition that the latter adopted the Goodricke name.

It is built of red brick with stone dressings, rusticated quoins, oversailing eaves, a modillion cornice, and hipped Westmorland slate roofs.

[6][7] St Andrew's Chapel is attached to the south-east of the hall, and is separately grade II* listed.

It consists of a continuous nave and chancel, with a lean-to two-storey porch at the east end of the south wall, containing a doorway with a chamfered surround and a hood mould.

The inner pair are about 4 metres (13 ft) high, and each has an entablature with a rosette motif, and a triangular pediment surmounted by a lion with its paw on a globe.
