Halnaby Hall Built in 1661 as the seat of the Milbanke family. It is by repute to have been designed by Inigo Jones (1753-1652) although if this were to be correct its execution would have been posthumously undertaken, Jones having died less than ten years before. The House was also renowned as the setting of Lord and Lady Byron's dismal honeymoon, disparagingly referred to as his 'treaclemoon', in 1815. The entry in the Henry Spencer & Sons catalogue refers to the present lot having been from the bedroom which they occupied. Halnaby's final owner was George Gregory. It was demolished in 1952 having been pronounced by North Riding council as of 'no national, historical, architectural interest' the previous year. Sir William Whitfield was a key member of the unsuccessful petition to rescue the house from demolition. Selected parts of the house were amputated and relocated; the dining room, for example, was 're-established' at the Bridge Inn, near Wetherby. The Yorkshire Post, in 1952, reported the purchase of a fireplace by the Ministry of Works, 'with 'pineapple and dentilled cornice', destined for Kensington Palace.
