Kirby Hall is an Elizabethan country house and its associated gardens located in Northamptonshire, England. The hall was constructed in the late sixteenth century and represents a significant example of Renaissance domestic architecture of that period. The site encompasses not only the substantial remains of the main house but also the earthworks and archaeological evidence of the medieval village of Kirby, which preceded the hall's construction. The gardens, laid out in formal designs characteristic of the post-Elizabethan era, survive in part as landscape features, and the complex as a whole documents both the domestic aspirations of the Tudor gentry and the settlement patterns of medieval Northamptonshire.
