From the Wikipedia article

Farsyde House is a historic building in Fylingthorpe, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The farmhouse was built in the 16th century, while an entrance extension was added in 1670. The roof was replaced, probably in the early 19th century, and a porch was added in the 20th century. There are various outbuildings, many of which have been converted into cottages. The house was grade II* listed in 1990. The property currently operates as an equestrian centre. The house is in sandstone on a chamfered plinth, and has pantile roofs with a stone ridge, broad copings and rolled kneelers. There are two storeys and attics, and a T-shaped plan, with a rear wing, a main front of three bays, a massive chimney stack on the left, mullioned windows and a dormer. At the rear is a sash window and chamfered mullioned windows. The entrance extension has a blocked window with a moulded surround, and a doorway with a lintel inscribed with three sets of initials. Inside, there are various moulded beams and joists, much wooden panelling and large internal window shutters, along with an early-18th-century staircase.
