Description
Firby Hall is a late 18th-century to early 19th-century house, now divided into flats. It features a 5-bay main range with cross wings to the rear on the left and to the front on the right. The building is constructed of limestone rubble, brought to course, with a Westmorland slate roof. It has two storeys and six first-floor windows, with one window to the left return of the rear cross wing. Steps lead to an early 20th-century porch with an elaborate shell hood in the second bay of the main range. A pedimented porch is also present on the rear cross wing. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars; those on the ground floor have wooden wedge lintels, each incorporating a blank shield. Original rainwater heads are visible. The building has a plain parapet with ball finials and a hipped roof, with end and ridge stacks.
