Description
Firby Hall is a house built in the late 18th century, with a 19th-century wing on the left side and a single-storey wing at the rear. The building is constructed of rubblestone, rendered, and topped with a graduated stone slate roof. It features six bays and stands two storeys tall. The main front has three canted bays that rise to three storeys. The ground and first floors of the canted bay have sash windows with glazing bars and stone cills. The first floors of the first, second, and sixth bays contain unequally-hung 9-pane sash windows, also with stone cills. The second floor of the canted bay has 6-pane sash windows with stone cills.
On the right side, the building has two storeys and two bays. There is a central six-panel door with a fanlight that has radiating glazing bars, framed by a 20th-century door surround with pilasters and an open pediment. The sash windows here also have glazing bars and stone cills. The first floor has unequally-hung 9-pane sash windows, and all windows feature stone cills. The eaves overhang, and the hipped roof has end stacks on the canted bay. Inside, there are two late 18th-century marble fireplaces.
