Very little is known of the history of the lock up. The grade 2 listing lists the building as Gazebo, former village lock up. The listing reads:-
“Gazebo. Early - mid C19. Probably for the Staveley family of Stainley Hall
(qv). Coursed limestone rubble and cobbles, sheet metal roof. A circular
1-storey building entered from the south side and built into a garden wall.
Sawn stone door surround lacking any door fittings. Small square windows on
the north and east sides, giving a view up and down the main street of North
Stainley. Tall conical roof. Wooden finial. Interior: plain plaster
walls, braced timber roof structure.”
