15 magnificent photos inside a Leeds manor with almost 200 years of history

It’s a striking moment when you enter Castle Grove Masonic Hall.

Walking inside the well-preserved historic manor feels somewhat like stepping back in time.

The Grade II listed building was first built in Headingley back in 1834 as a gentleman’s residence before it was transformed into a grand residence in the Victorian era.

In 1934, Castle Grove then became the home of several Leeds Masonic Lodges to conserve a beautiful piece of history.

Nowadays, it’s a distinctive setting used for weddings and other events, as celebrants seek a memorable location to mark their special day.

Here are 15 magnificent photos of what it looks like inside.
