Clifton Hall, Medieval manor house in Clifton, England.
The three-story stone pele tower of Clifton Hall stands as the remaining section of a former manor house, featuring thick defensive walls and period architectural details.
Built around 1400 by the Engaine family, the hall witnessed the last battle on English soil during the 1745 Jacobite Rising at Clifton Moor.
The structure represents the architectural evolution of northern English defensive residences, transitioning from medieval fortified houses to refined country estates.
Visitors can access the hall through a footpath crossing farm fields, with parking available near the church across the road in Clifton village.
The hall incorporates an H-shaped layout with a central section flanked by two wings, marking a departure from standard medieval construction patterns.
