Description: Bedale Hall Bedale Hall is at the north end of the main street and its front looks northwards towards the countryside. The oldest part of the building is the 5 bay ashlar front [seen here] which dates from the 1730s, and was built for the Pierce family. The rendered wings to the left and right are later. During WW2 it was requisitioned for use by the armed forces and fell into disrepair once squatters moved in in 1948. The local district council purchased it in 1951 and began restoration work. It now belongs to Hambleton District Council and is used for functions, a library and a museum.
