Historical background of Farfield Hall
Construction of Farfield Hall began in the 1720s for the Myers family, though records indicate a previous dwelling may have stood on the property beforehand.
Subsequent ownership passed to the Cunliffe Lister family and the Smith family before George Douglas of the Bradford Dyers Association acquired the estate in 1908.
Following the death of George Douglas’s son Keith in 1947, the West Riding County Council took over the property and operated it as an elderly care home.
The property returned to private ownership in 1990 and has remained with the same family since that time.
