caption_attribution_description: English: Kirklees Priory Gatehouse, Clifton. Not the building from which Robin Hood is supposed to have shot the arrow to mark where he wished to be buried, although possibly on the same site. The part seen here is a late 16C or early 17C addition to the early 16C building (see other photo for this). It might have been the farm manager's house. The transomed window on the first floor is the only one of this type amongst the farm buildings.
context_page_description: Kirklees Hall is a 16th-century Grade I listed Jacobean hall, close to the English village of Clifton in Calderdale, West Yorkshire.
  The first evidence of a hall constructed at Kirklees was that of Sir Thomas Gargrave, who conveyed the property to the Pilkington family.
  After the estate was acquired by the up-and-coming Armytage family, the stone built hall was altered c.1770 by John Carr for the Sir George Armytage, 3rd Baronet. The Armytage family went on to occupy the hall for several generations.
  Lady Armytage, sold the property in 1983 and moved into Priory Gardens a property she built within Kirklees Park estate adjacent to Old Farm and the Kirklees Priory site. The former gatehouse part of the Old Farm complex can still be seen, though the site is on private land and has no public access.
  Kirklees Hall and grounds designed after Francis Richardson are now a collection of luxury residences set in 18 acres and are annexed from Kirklees Park estate which are private with no public access.
