Grimethorpe Hall, Brierley Road - Barnsley

House (c1670, altered in C18, C19 and C20), which requires extensive repairs. The setting has been eroded by the construction of housing to the west. Following the dissolution of the company that owned the property, it has become subject to escheat to the Crown. The building has been subject to heritage crime. The majority of openings are blocked up, the roof is now failing with significant water ingress. Discussions are being undertaken with the local community regarding its possible future use.
