Description

Skirbeck Hall is a rectory built in 1847 by Edward Lapidge, currently vacant. The building features Gault brick in Flemish bond with ashlar dressings, a stone coped brick plinth, and a parapet and cornice in brick. It has a shallow pitched slate roof with lead dressings and wall and ridge stacks, and an irregular plan.

The exterior consists of two storeys. The front block, which contains the entrance, is taller and has a canted end bay window with glazing bar sashes on each side and on the floor. The side entrance bay is advanced, featuring a stone moulded door surround with a dentillated open pediment and moulded console brackets. Above this is a glazing bar sash with a shouldered stone surround. The lower wing to the west has four bays arranged in a 1:3 pattern. The three ground floor openings are blocked, while the others contain glazing bar sashes. At the rear, there is a two-storey wing with a hipped roof and dormers, along with a 20th-century flat-roofed block built in the angle between the rear and front blocks.

Inside, the principal rooms have panelled doors and shutters, a stick baluster staircase, and arches leading to the hallway. Skirbeck Hall was constructed for Rev Dr William Roy after the previous rectory was destroyed by fire.
