Christmas in the Great Hall - a photo on Flickriver

Christmas in the Great Hall

In Elizabethan times the Great Hall rose to the full height of the building. By the end of the C16th the upper windows had been blanked off and the ceiling lowered to allow for the creation of attic rooms. There is a corridor running along the upper windows so that you can look down into the hall without being seen. The hall was remodelled again in the 1730 - 60s.

Burton Constable is a hidden gem, tucked away in countryside between Beverley and Hull in Yorkshire.

The Constables have been associated with a building on this site since the C13th when they gave their name to the manor of Burton which means settlement at a fortified dwelling.

The oldest part is the North Tower, known as Stephen’s Tower. In the late C15th century a new brick manor house was built at Burton Constable. Much of this was in turn demolished in the 1560s, when Sir John built a new Elizabethan mansion, incorporating the remains of the earlier manor house and the North Tower.
