The Ark, Grade II* listed building in Tadcaster, England
The Ark stands as a two-story structure with timber framing, featuring a limestone base, brick elements, and pantile roof on Kirkgate street.
Originally constructed in the late 15th century, The Ark underwent modifications in the 17th century and received its Grade II* listed status in 1985.
The building's gable brackets display carved figures representing Noah and his wife, connecting to local folklore and influencing its current name.

From 1959 to 1988, The Ark operated as a museum dedicated to local history and the brewing industry under John Smiths Brewery ownership.
