One of Ilkley's oldest buildings has gone on the market for the first time in 70 years.


The grade II listed building opened as a school in 1637 and continued until 1872. The new Grammar School building opened on Cowpasture Road in 1893.


Over the decades the building has been a shoemaker, chapel, antique shop and more recently used as an office.


With a guide price of £200,000, the property is on the market with FSS, who describe it as "largely open plan and would make an ideal retail unit, office or, subject to the relevant approvals, a residential/Air Bnb opportunity.


"Internally, all of the period features remain in addition of a fitted stove which sits within the recessed fireplace."
