Ingleborough Hall

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Ingleborough Hall is a historic building in Clapham, North Yorkshire, a village in England.

The house was built in about 1814 for James Farrer, to a design by

Bradford City Council, which ran it as an outdoor activity centre, mostly used for school trips. In 2024, the council proposed selling off the building, which it claimed required expensive maintenance.[3]

The house is built of stone with sill bands and a

in antis, and a projecting entablature with triglyphs, metopes, and a cornice with guttae. The ground floor windows in both fronts are sashes, and in the upper floor they are casements. Inside, the main staircase is original, and moulded cornices survive in the main ground floor rooms.[1][4]
