Entrance to Bowcliffe Hall
The hall itself, a corner of which can be seen to the left, is grade II listed and dates from c.1805. The entrance is relatively modern, a result of road realignment when the A1(M) was built. It also gives access to Bramham Hall.

The Fox Inn
O.S. 1st edition shows a T-plan church here, indicated as 'R.C. Chapel'. This building, built in 1847, is named St. Mary's on the O.S. map of 1910 though it is now dedicated to St. Brigid http://www.rathkennyparish.ie/index.php/masses/grangegeeth .

A Halloween House
This is actually called Old Fox Cottage, but on October 31st it makes a suitably creepy subject for a Halloween photo. The 'fox' in the name is a link to the Lane-Fox family at nearby Bramham Park and this is an early 19thC lodge cottage for the estate. It stands close by a corner of one of the approach roads to the estate, but is now cut off by the nearby six lanes of roaring traffic on the A1 Motorway. To the left is a road junction [off picture] which was the old Great North Road, now reduced to an unclassified county road. The cottage is Grade II listed.

Bowcliffe Hall
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.
