About

Shibden Hall is a Grade II* listed historic house located in a public park at Shibden, West Yorkshire, England. The building has been extensively modified from its original design by generations of residents, although its Tudor half-timbered frontage remains its most recognisable feature. One of its most notable residents was Anne Lister who inherited the hall from a relative.

Lister has been described as being the "first modern lesbian" due to her "love... [of] the fairer sex" that she documented in her diaries.
