Scaitcliffe Hall was the home of the Crossley family since medieval times. The south part was re-built in 1666 and the north part in 1738, then it was completely pulled down and re-erected in 1833. It is an attractive Grade 2 listed building in picturesque surroundings.
Most recently it was a hotel, restaurant, and popular wedding venue. We think it closed around 2012. There was some fire damage in 2017 and the roof is leaky in parts but it’s not bad considering how long it’s been derelict. The stone shell is probably good for another couple of centuries.
Wandered around with @FreshFingers and Chalky. Behold, faded grandeur perfectly captured in over-exposed photographs.
We catch a glimpse of the hall across the duck pond.
The 'annex' which is in the worst condition due to being full of holes.
The main building, a sturdy stone fortress.
Stables / coach house?
Couple of cheeky chaps enjoying the buena vista.
Chunky walls.
Entrance hall. Mosaic floor and wood panelling Welcome to the hotel.
Mind the gap.
Arch.
There were several vaulted rooms in the cellar.
Obligatory peeling paper. A timeless colour combination of Skimming Stone and Kittiwake. Very tasteful.
Moss? On the wall? I love it!
Wake up, it's a beautiful morning.
Cosy room with fireplace.
Menu included a £100 bottle of wine. Bar did not.
Bar. You can have a 6 year old J2O.
Kitchen. The shadow represents happy memories of delicious meals cooked here, the empty pot, reality.
Clocking-in machine.
Well-ventilated room in the annex.
View from the attic.
Amongst the 2012 attic junk (CDs, Xmas tree and decorations, GQ magazines... the usual).
Didn't check YouTube so I'll never know if the place is haunted.
Round the back. That's the cremains of an entire caravan.
Nothing special, but worth a look if you're passing through Tod.
