The building, in 2010

The Old Hall is a historic building in Carlton Husthwaite, a building in North Yorkshire, in England.

The building was constructed as a manor house, probably in about 1685.[1] It lies at the west end of the village street.[2] In the 20th century, its roofs were replaced, as were many of the windows, and a single-storey extension was added at the rear. It was Grade II* listed in 1960.[1]

The house is constructed of brick on a stone plinth, with a moulded floor band, a modillion cornice, and a pantile roof with stone copings and kneelers. There are two storeys and an attic, a double depth plan with an M-shaped roof, and five bays, the middle bay projecting slightly. The doorway is in the right return, and in the left return is a French window. The windows are sashes with moulded sills and flat arches. Inside, there are early oak fittings including panelling and staircases, and an 18th-century cast iron grate. Historic England state that "the internal fittings in this house are of unusually high quality".[1][3]
