Fangfoss Hall
Fangfoss Hall is a historic building in Fangfoss, a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England.
A large house in Fangfoss was first recorded in 1563, probably on a moated site. It was probably demolished when the current house was constructed in 1766,[1] to a design by John Carr.[2] The interior was partly redesigned in about 1840. The house was divided into apartments in 1957.[1] The building was grade II* listed in 1967.[3] It was partly restored in 1989.[4]
The house is built of reddish-brown brick on a stone plinth, with stone dressings, sill bands, a floor band, a modillion eaves cornice and a hipped slate roof. There are three storeys and five bays. On the west front, steps lead up to a doorway with a rusticated surround and a fanlight with radial glazing, in a Tuscan porch with a low pediment. The windows are sashes under slightly cambered gauged brick arches. On the east front is a porch with Ionic columns.[3][5]
