Moulton Manor is a historic building in Moulton, North Yorkshire, a village in England. The manor house was rebuilt in about 1570, and was slightly altered in the 17th century. A local tradition states that James VI and I spent a night in the house. By the early 20th century, it served as a farmhouse, but it was restored, extended and altered in 1938. The building was grade I listed in 1951. The house is built of stone on plinths, with chamfered rusticated quoins, and pantile roofs with shaped kneelers and stone copings. It has three storeys and a part basement, and an H-shaped plan, with a middle range of three bays, and two-bay gabled cross-wings. Five steps with side parapets lead up to the central doorway with a decorated architrave, a moulded frieze and a stepped hood mould. Most of the windows are cross windows, some with pediments. Above the doorway is a semicircular window with keystones, and above the central range and return is a parapet and a balustrade with pedestals. Inside the house, the entrance hall has 17th-century panelling and a stone architrave around the fireplace. The room to the left has early panelling, with pilasters between, the capitals of which depict carpenters' tools, and a cornice with frieze below. The kitchen has a large fireplace and chimney, with a possible priest hole. There is a 17th-century staircase with barleytwist balusters, above which is a moulded ceiling. On the first floor is a room with an elaborate fireplace with a frieze above, while all the rooms have early doorways and original fireplaces.

St Michael and All Angels' Church, Middleton Tyas

St Michael and All Angels' Church is the parish church of Middleton Tyas, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The oldest surviving part of the church is the north arcade of the nave, which was built about 1140, although it is believed that this was an addition to an earlier building, which was both widened and lengthened. In the 13th century the west tower was constructed, and the chancel and north wall of the nave were rebuilt. The south arcade of the nave was added in the 14th century. Between 1867 and 1869, the church was restored by George Gilbert Scott, the work including the reconstruction of the chancel, heightening of the chancel arch, addition of a north vestry, a south porch and a spire, and the rebuilding of many of the windows. The church was grade I listed in 1969. The church is built of stone with an artificial stone slate roof, and consists of a nave, north and south aisles, a south porch, a chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower. The tower has four stages, a southeast stair turret, a two-light west window, light vents, two-light bell openings, and a parapet on corbels. At the east end of the south aisle is a half-lunette window with two mullions. Between the north door and a buttress is a grave cover propped up vertically. Inside, the fittings date from 1868 or later, but there is a tomb and a coffin lid, both dating from about 1300, a piscina, a 15th-century alms box, a communion table dating from about 1700, and part of a Saxon cross head.
