Today enjoy the hall’s architecture and formal garden. Kirby Hall is one of England’s greatest Elizabethan and 17th century houses earlier owned by Sir Christopher Hatton, Lord Chancellor to Queen Elizabeth I. Although this vast mansion is partly roofless, the walls show the exceptionally rich decoration that proclaims that its successive owners were always in the forefront of new ideas about architecture and design. There are also recently restored great gardens with elaborate ‘cutwork’ design complete with statues and urns. This page is for visitors and fans of Kirby Hall to share photos, thoughts and recommendations.

A little over 90 years ago, an impressive 1,500 girl gathered at Kirby Hall for the planting of trees in our lane to commemorate George V’s Silver Jubilee!

Last week, the First Barton Seagrave’s Girl Guides came to Kirby for a spooky bat walk and had a wonderful time! 🦇🦇
