Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: 24 Jul 2003
Possibly dating from 1684. It's essentially Classical up to the parapet, but then it veers off at a tangent - the shaped dormers and chimneys probably date from a C19th remodelling. Grade I listed. It has been a school for some years, is now part of Middlesbrough College but at the time of writing future ownership appears to be in some doubt.
