Gainford Hall, Grade I listed manor house in Gainford, England.

The Jacobean residence features two main floors with grand reception rooms, constructed using local stone and displaying symmetrical architectural elements on its exterior.

Reverend John Cradock, who later became Chancellor to the Bishop of Durham, commissioned the construction of Gainford Hall around 1603.

The building represents North England's early architectural innovations as one of the first houses designed with a two-room-deep layout in the region.

The hall underwent extensive restoration work, including the installation of steel supports, complete roof replacement, and structural repairs to ensure its preservation.

The property includes a 17th-century dovecote structure that maintains its original purpose of housing birds within its Grade II listed walls.
