Houghton Hall, Sancton
A mid-Georgian house in the Palladian mould of a central block connected by quadrant walls to wings. Built c1765-68 for Philip Langdale, its design attributed to Thomas Atkinson. It is built of local 'pink' brick. In 1957-60 Francis Johnson added the porch and removed 'unsightly' Victorian additions. Grade I listed.
Atkinson (?1729-98), a mason by trade, became "one of the leading architects in Yorkshire" (Howard Colvin) during the last third of the C18th. This does not seem to prevented him from dying insolvent, but one of his four sons continued the business, and two others were also masons. Thomas designed country houses, churches, town houses and several public buildings.
