  • Gainsborough Old Hall - Built of brick, with massive oak framing, Gainsborough Old Hall is a magnificent surviving building from the late medieval period.
    It was built for the powerful Burgh family, whose old home was destroyed by the Lancastrians in approximately 1470.
    One of the hall's striking features is a sturdy brick tower and turret with a winding stone stairway, and from the top views stretch over the valley, almost to the Humber.
    In the past the hall has been used as a linen factory, a theatre, a machine workshop and an auction room. In recent years much effort has gone into making the hall a centre for cultural activity and events such as medieval days, craft fairs and concerts take place regularly.
