"This wonderfully little-altered building is the most complete surviving example of the meduim-sized 14th century country house in England" John Martin Robinson The Architecture of Northern England. Tucked privately away down a mile-long winding drive, Markenfield is one of the most astonishing and romantic of Yorkshire’s medieval houses: fortified, completely moated, and still privately owned. Winner of the HHA and Sotheby’s Finest Restoration Award 2008.
