The Dutch House, York

The house was built in brick in about 1650, with Andrew Graham dating it to 1648.

Originally, it is believed to have had only an external staircase, suggesting that it was not a domestic building.

[1] In 1954, it was Grade II* listed but it was in a poor state of repair,[2][1] and in 1956, John Smith's Brewery announced plans to demolish it.

[4] Instead, the York Civic Trust restored the building,[4] with much of the front wall entirely rebuilt, as a copy of the original.

This more recent work won a York Design Award.
