Barley Hall, Medieval house museum in York, England.
The restored building features original timber-framed architecture, multiple rooms, and medieval furnishings that recreate a wealthy merchant's residence from 1483.
The structure, dating from 1360, served as a residence for monks of Nostell Priory before becoming home to William Snawsell, a goldsmith and supporter of Richard III.
Each room contains period-specific furniture and objects based on a detailed inventory from 1478, showing the lifestyle of medieval York inhabitants.
The museum opens from 10:00 to 17:00 between April and October, and from 10:00 to 16:00 from November to March, with admission prices starting at £6.50.
Hidden under modern facades until the 1980s, the building narrowly escaped demolition before archaeologists discovered its medieval structure beneath later additions.
