Skipton Hall

Skipton Hall is a house dating from the early 19th century, with alterations made in later years. It is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a graduated stone slate roof. The main block is three storeys high and three bays wide, with a lower, two-storey, two-bay wing set back to the right. The central entrance features a half-glazed door and radial-bar fanlight, set within a Doric surround of half-columns, a frieze, and a pediment. Flanking the entrance are late 19th-century canted bay windows, each with sash windows, a modillion frieze, a cornice, and a hipped lead roof. First-floor windows are four-pane sashes, while the second-floor windows are 20th-century casements. All windows have stone sills and flat brick arches. An eaves band runs along the building. Stone capping and end stacks are present. The rear elevation incorporates horizontal bands at the first, second, and eaves levels. It also has four-pane sash windows throughout, and an off-centre six-panel door with a plain fanlight in a plain, semicircular surround.
