- Shibden Hall from 1420 to 1926 we visited Halifax and explored the hall.
Shibden Hall dates back to 1420 and offers visitors a fascinating journey through the lives of the people who lived and worked here, including the noted diarist Anne Lister.
Shibden Hall’s architecture is a mix of styles reflecting its interesting and varied history. The adjacent 17th century aisled barn and workshops house a carriage collection and displays relating to different crafts, including a blacksmiths, coopers, wheelwrights and saddlers.
The Hall is surrounded by the beautifully restored gardens and estate that forms Shibden Park. There are a range of features and attractions, including a cafe and visitor facilities, miniature railway, boating lake, walking trails, play area, orienteering course and woodland in which to roam.

This brought back memories. I'm from Shipley at the other side of Bradford, and used to come here regularly. Trouble is, now I would be unable to climb the stairs. I think there are a lot more outside exhibits than there were.
