About
Walkergate House was built circa 1780, this was when Beverley was becoming a fashionable town of elegant houses and imposing public buildings. From 1855 it was the home of William Crosskill 'The Father of Mechanised Farming in East Yorkshire' and founder of the iron works in Mill Lane which, in the 1850s employed around 800 men. There is an example of his iron work in the form of a cast iron street lamp on Butcher Row in Beverley.At Walkergate House, there are two ceremony rooms, The Courtney Suite and Crosskill Suite. Both are tastefully decorated, have music available, toilets, air conditioning, disabled access and hearing loops. There is limited parking and adjoining gardens for photographs.
