Newer extensions dating from the 19th & 20th centuries have enclosed a well-preserved 16th century timber-framed and stone manor house, which was given a Grade II listing in 1952 http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-331810-the-old-manor-house-scotton-north-yorksh The original building may well have survived largely intact because of its associations with the local Percy and Fawkes families, Guy Fawkes of the latter being of 'Gunpowder Plot' fame.
