Grantley Hall is a grade II * listed Country House located in North Yorkshire, England. It is situated near Grantley, about to the west of Ripon, on the banks of the River Skell. The house was built by Thomas Norton and his son Fletcher Norton, 1st Baron Grantley in the mid 18th century, apparently based on a Palladian design by Isaac Ware. Additions in the 1760s have been attributed to John Carr, who knew Fletcher Norton. The house was extended during the 19th and early 20th centuries to form the house as it stands today. More recently the building was used as a convalescent home during World War II. Between 1947 and 1974, the house was under the ownership of West Riding County Council, who purchased the property to use as an adult education residential college before it passed to North Yorkshire County Council in 1974, to become a training and conference centre. In 2006 the property was sold to a private purchaser for residential use. It was sold again in 2010, and planning permission was granted for conversion of the building into a 50 bedroom hotel. Other buildings on the Grantley Estate include The Ellis Building and the East Lodge. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Grantley Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
