Scout or Scote Hall is on a small hill on the south side of upper Shibden Dale. The history of the site can be traced back to 1315 when the Stancliffe family were owners. By Elizabethan times, there were two large houses here. There is no date on the present building, but a nearby cottage has 1661 on it, and a sundial plate dated ANNO 1617. It is a large 3-storey, 52 room, four square building built and owned by the Mitchell family in the late 1600s. It has a mixture of architectural styles, from Jacobean, Caroline and Georgian to Italianate. It is thought by some to be a Calendar building - its 12 bays representing the months, the 52 doors the weeks and the 365 windows the days. By the mid-1980s, the Hall was derelict and in a serious state of decay and ruin; it was partially restored in the 1980s by local businessman Peter Mellor, but now [2003] seems to be again in a state of disrepair. It was once described by architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner, in his 'Buildings of England', as a "half derelict palace in the deserted English countryside".
The Hall is a Grade II* listed building. Nine 2- light mullioned and transomed windows to south divided into groups of 3, 4 and 2 by small, elliptical openings set in corniced rectangular panels. Central corniced doorway. Moulded storey bands. 4 windows to east return. 3 windows to west with tier of elliptical openings. Rear wing in ruins.
In June, 2004 two Chief Scout Gold Awards were presented at local Scout headquarters by Dave Clarke and Grant Russell. Pictured were, from left - Mr Clarke, Russell Cargill, Marc Kennedy and Mr Russell.
