Austhorpe Hall, Grade II* listed house in Leeds, England
Austhorpe Hall is a red brick house in Leeds with decorative stone corners and classical architectural details. The building rises three stories with seven bays across its facade and features a triangular pediment crowning the main entrance.
The house was built in 1694 for John More and later became significant for industrial innovation. In 1740, John Calley installed one of the first Newcomen steam engines on the property to power coal mining operations.
The architectural design represents an early adoption of classical elements in English residential architecture, as noted by historian Nikolaus Pevsner.
The house is located in Leeds and is accessible by local transport connections. Visitors should check in advance about any access restrictions, as it is a protected heritage building.
Archaeological excavations in 2004 uncovered both prehistoric burial mounds and Roman defensive structures buried within the grounds. These findings reveal that the land held significance for people across many centuries before the house was built.
