Crook Hall was built about 1286 on lands belonging to Sydgate Manor. The name refers to Peter de Croke, who owned the hall in the early 14th century. Of that medieval structure only the great hall and a screen passage remain, but these offer a good impression of what the first Crook Hall must have been like. You can see where the original medieval doorways have been filled in.

Wynch Bridge is a chain suspension bridge across the river Tees. The first bridge was built in 1741, which may make it the first chain bridge in England. It was built by public subscription to allow lead miners from Holwick to reach the Middleton mines.
