Steeton Hall

Steeton Hall is a historic building near South Milford, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The Reygate family possessed the manor of Steeton from the mid 12th century. William de Reygate renewed a licence for a chapel at Steeton in 1342, and he may have built Steeton Hall that year. In or around the 1360s, a gatehouse was constructed, to govern access through the property's surrounding wall. The house was heavily altered around 1642 and again in the 19th century. The surrounding wall fell into ruin and now survives only as a low bank, while other earthworks represent platforms of demolished ancillary buildings and a dried-up fishpond. The gatehouse became state-owned in 1948, and is now an English Heritage property, while the house remains in private ownership. The hall was grade I listed in 1952, and the gatehouse separately listed at grade I in 1967. The site and gatehouse are also a scheduled monument.
