Get ready to explore the fascinating history of Ilkley Manor House with local historian Mike Dixon. From its possible origins to its recent rescue, discover the evolution of this remarkable building over several centuries.

During this hour-long tour, you'll be taken on a journey through time as you explore the main elements of the building, including the cross-passage, buttery, and kitchen.

Marvel at the massive fireplace and oriel bay in the main room before moving upstairs to see the solar wing and its impressive medieval hall roof supported by massive timbers.

Finally, in the upstairs gallery, you can step back in time and imagine the grandeur of the original hall, complete with a possible minstrels' gallery entrance.
