Lightfoot House (19 North Bailey, Durham, directly across the road from Durham Cathedral) is one of the buildings that comprise St Chad's College, Durham University, England. It consists of two adjacent Grade II listed buildings that were constructed in the 18th century and have since been connected internally. The building is used as a hall of residence for first-year and third-year undergraduates. It is named after Joseph Barber Lightfoot, who was Bishop of Durham from 1879 to 1889.
