Jacobs Well, Medieval hall house in Micklegate, England
The timber-framed Jacob's Well features medieval brickwork on the ground floor and projects outward on its upper level with a 15th-century entrance canopy.
Thomas Nelson, a York alderman, funded the construction of Jacob's Well in 1474 to provide accommodation for a chantry priest who would pray for his family.
The building changed from religious housing to an inn in 1749, then returned to ecclesiastical use as a parish room for Holy Trinity Church in 1903.
Located off Trinity Lane, the Grade I listed building currently houses the York Gild of Butchers and remains available for private functions through Holy Trinity Micklegate.
The structure required extensive restoration in 1991 due to structural instability caused by continuous vibrations from nearby street traffic.
