📍ABANDONED "EXTWISTLE HALL"

📖 HISTORY

Extwistle Hall is a 16th-century manor house near Briercliffe that was built on land previously owned by Kirkstall Abbey. The Parker family, who bought the land in 1537, lived there for about 200 years before leaving in 1718 to move to Cuerden Hall. After being partially destroyed by a fire and explosion, the main hall was abandoned around 1975, and it has been in a state of serious disrepair for decades, leaving it on Historic England's at-risk register.
Key historical points:
Original Ownership:
The land was once owned by the dissolved Kirkstall Abbey before being purchased by Robert Parker in 1537.
Parker Family:
The Parker family occupied the hall for around two centuries, but eventually left in 1718 to reside at Cuerden Hall.
Partial Destruction:
The hall suffered damage from an explosion and a fire, leading to its eventual abandonment.
Abandonment & Decay:
The main hall was abandoned in approximately 1975, and has since been in a state of decay for nearly 50 years.
Current Status:
Extwistle Hall is a Grade II listed building that remains on Historic England's at-risk register.
Architectural Notes:
It is a 16th and 17th-century gentry hall-house, with some modifications and a farmhouse conversion in the late 19th century.
The construction is a mix of coursed squared sandstone and coursed sandstone rubble, with various stone slate roof levels.
