Currently this stately home is used as a wedding, conference and business centre venue. It began life in 1805, passing into the nearby Bramham Park estate in 1841 - this was due to a fire which compelled the Fox family to purchase and move in here from Bramham Hall. 1906 saw the Fox family moving back into Bramham Park, leaving Bowcliffe Hall empty. The most notable owner since, was Robert Blackburn - an aviation pioneer. Today it is the headquarters of the Bayford Group, amongst other organisations with offices here.
