Farnley Hall, Grade I listed house in Farnley, England.
The hall features an 18th-century square block with L-shaped wings, constructed of coursed squared gritstone and ashlar with stone slate roofs.
Built during the Elizabethan era by the Danby family, the manor was mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book under the name Fernelei.
John Ruskin visited the hall frequently, where he admired an extensive collection of J.M.W. Turner watercolors and oil paintings created between 1808-1824.
Leeds City Council acquired the property in 1945, transforming the surrounding grounds into Farnley Hall Park for public recreation.
The hall served as a maternity hospital during World War II, demonstrating its adaptability to meet community needs during critical times.
