Leck Hall is an 18th-century country house located at Leck, Lancashire, England, near Kirkby Lonsdale.

The hall is grade II listed.[1] and stands in an informal park with an orangery nearby. Home farm, late 18th century, is close to the house and there is a Lodge at the entrance to the drive.[2]

It is the current seat of Baron Shuttleworth, of Gawthorpe Hall, Padiham in the County Palatine of Lancaster (Lancashire) and is not open to the public.[3]
