The Glusburn Institute is a historic building in Glusburn, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The building was commissioned by John Horsfall, who was a supporter of temperance and wished to encourage education and recreation in an alcohol-free environment. It was designed by F. W. Petty in a broadly Renaissance style, and the first section was opened in 1892. In 1897, an extension added a gym on the ground floor, and art rooms above, while the baths were extened in 1905, and a clock tower was added in 1911. On the ground floor were a library, reading room, billiard room, dining room and public baths; the first floor had a lecture room, also used for religious services, and smaller meeting rooms. In 1948, the art rooms were converted into a Baptist chapel, and the gym into a Sunday school. In the 1970s, the Horsfall family transferred ownership of the building to a trust, with the local parish council acting as trustees. The church and Sunday school were sold to the Baptists, and partitioned off from the rest of the building. Later, the ground floor dining room and kitchen were converted into a play centre, and the swimming pool closed. The Baptist church closed in 2000, and the property was repurchased by the trust. In 2012, the parish council transferred trusteeship to the trust, which renamed the building as Glusburn Community and Arts Centre. The institute is currently provides a range of classes, concerts, plays, and other activities. The building was grade II listed along with its garden wall in 1977. The building is built of stone with a pierced arcaded parapet, turrets, and a green slate roof. There are two storeys and four irregular bays.

The second bay forms a three-storey bay window, and the clock tower in the third bay has a stone dome and four domed pinnacles. Most of the windows are mullioned and transomed, and attached to the building is a low stone wall with domed piers and iron railings.

Malsis Hall is a historic building in Cross Hills, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The first Malsis Hall was a manor house in existence by 1340, when it was owned by the Copley family. The hall was burned down in the 1540s during local riots against enclosure. A new hall was built for Alvery Copley in about 1550. In 1621, the Copleys sold the house to Richard Horsfall, but he was on the losing side in the English Civil War and had to raise funds by letting out the hall. It was sold in 1786, at which time it had a 300-acre estate, but by the 1860s was dilapidated. Mary Spencer inherited the house, and her husband, James Lund, funded its demolition and replacement with a new country house, completed in 1866. Later in the century, a tower was added, followed by an extension with a portico for carriages, and a service block. The hall was converted into Malsis School in 1920, with work including the addition of a war memorial chapel. The school initially leased the building, but later purchased the estate. It closed in 2014, and was converted into a care home. The building has been grade II listed since 1984. The building is constructed of stone with angle pilasters, an entablature, a pierced arcaded parapet with urns, and a slate roof, and is in Italianate style. There are two storeys, and an entrance front of twelve bays, with a porte cochère. Most of the windows have two lights, and cornices on consoles, those in the upper floor with round heads, and those in the ground floor with segmental heads. In the centre is a belvedere tower. The chapel has stained glass by John Piper.
