Shibden Hall

The hall dates back to around 1420, and for three hundred years (1615-1926) it was owned by the Lister family who were wealthy mill-owners and cloth merchants.

The estate became a public park in 1926, and the hall a museum in 1934. The park and gardens were restored between 2007 and 2008 with almost £3.9 million from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
