Halton East: what to know before moving day
All seven listed buildings in the parish are in the village itself. White House Farmhouse dates in part from 1620, Halton Hall and Sunnyside Cottage from the mid 17th century, Fern Cottage from about 1700 and The Fold, a house later split in two, from 1704. Bramham Cottage keeps its barn, and Dyneley House was extended around 1820. Expect stone walls, stone slate roofs and small cottage doorways, and measure a wardrobe or sofa before the day.
Chapel Lane runs through the village, postcode BD23 6EH, and Holme Lane heads west from it. South of the houses is Long Causeway, the trunk road. The village was a township of the large ancient parish of Skipton until 1866, and it now sits in the Wharfedale ward of North Yorkshire Council.
