Skipton Town Hall, Victorian town hall in Skipton, England

The Grade II listed structure features a symmetrical seven-bay frontage with a two-story portico supported by Corinthian columns along High Street.

Built in 1862, the town hall became the headquarters of Skipton Urban District Council in 1895, replacing their previous location on Sheep Street.

The building contains the Craven Museum with 60,000 objects, an exhibition gallery presenting works from local artists, and a concert hall for performances.

The town hall includes a visitor center, gift shop featuring local makers' products, and spaces available for hire from large celebrations to small meetings.

The interior contains custom furniture crafted by Robert Thompson, and the building received a substantial £4.5 million restoration investment in 2019.
