An eighteenth century Grade II listed house built for John Harrison, an attorney and agent to the Chaloner estate of Lord Gisborough. From the mid fifties to the early seventies it was used as a training centre for the Jackson Burton Group who then had a substantial factory on the west end of town. In 1972 the Guisborough Urban District Council took the house over, followed by various evolutions of the local authority. Since 1981 Guisborough Town Council bought the House using it as a Community Centre.
