Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Halls and Manor Houses of Yorkshire: With Some Examples of Other Houses Built Before the Year 1700 With such a great wealth of material, the difficulty has been to know what to eliminate and what to select. The endeavour has been to choose interesting examples illustrating the variety of types characteristic of the different parts of the county. In seeking information, much valuable assistance has been Obtained from topographical works and also from individuals possessing a special knowledge of particular localities, and in the latter respect I am much indebted to Mr. Hugh P. Kendall for the help he has kindly given me with regard to houses near Halifax, and to Messrs. Walter H. Brierley, Brigg, E. W. Crossley, Joseph Walsh, and others for useful data.
