The Ridding, Victorian country house in Bentham, England.
The Ridding features squared rubble construction with sandstone ashlar dressings, three bays across two stories, and a distinctive two-stage tower on the left side.
The Scottish Baronial style residence was constructed between 1857 and 1860 by architect E G Paley for B H Bent, later becoming home to doctor Joseph Teale.
The building represents a notable example of Victorian domestic architecture in North Yorkshire, with its design reflecting the changing architectural preferences of the period.
The property sits between Low Bentham and Wennington, with convenient access to train stations connecting to major cities like Leeds and Lancaster.
This Grade II listed structure stands as the only Scottish Baronial style building designed by architect E G Paley throughout his entire career.
