Bishopthorpe Garth, Grade II listed building in Bishopthorpe, England.

The house features hand-made brick walls with mouldings, a pantile roof, and two wings that rise two storeys high with leaded casement windows.

Walter Brierley designed the house in 1908 for Arthur Toward Wilson, a colliery owner, incorporating Jacobethan design elements throughout the structure.

The gardens surrounding Bishopthorpe Garth were created by Gertrude Jekyll, a renowned English garden designer of the early twentieth century.

The property includes a gatehouse on Sim Balk Lane with two cottages and a carriage arch, providing separate accommodations within the estate.

The central section features two bays with an open-well oak staircase, while the left wing contains two bays and the right wing has one bay.
