Skipton House

Skipton House is a high specification office building in Elephant and Castle, Central London.

It was built for a Japanese bank and then sold on to accommodate staff of the Department of Health who were moved out of Alexander Fleming House.

Its address is 80 London Road SE1 6LH, next to the Bakerloo line entrance to Elephant & Castle tube station.

When the Information Centre for Health and Social Care was created on April 1, 2005, its London office was in Skipton House.

[1] Plans were approved in 2016 to demolish Skipton House as well as the adjacent hostel and London South Bank University Perry Library to make way for a mixed-use development designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill containing high-end flats, offices and restaurants.
