Busby Hall, Country house in Little Busby, North Yorkshire, England

Busby Hall exhibits classical design elements with finely-coursed herringbone-tooled sandstone, graduated Lakeland slate roof, and lead ridges spanning two storeys across five bays.

The Marwood family has maintained ownership of Busby Hall since 1587, with the current structure completed in 1764 following destruction of the previous building by fire.

The estate provided inspiration for Groby Hall in Ford Madox Ford's novel 'Parade's End', with Arthur Pierson Marwood inspiring the character Christopher Tietjens.

The property encompasses 700 acres of parkland that includes additional protected structures such as a Grade II stable block and a Grade II* walled garden.

The interior features a two-color marble fireplace in the saloon and a branching staircase decorated with gadrooned urns and square knops.
