Great Barn is an historic building in the English village of Hoghton, Lancashire. Built in 1692, and constructed using the local sandstone grit, it is now a Grade I listed building.[1] It stands just west of Hoghton Tower.


The building is eleven bays long. One end was lofted when it was used as a milking parlour and the walls at the other end were reinforced with railway sleepers for its last agricultural use as a silage clamp.[2]

Wedding Venue

In 2021, planning permission was approved by Chorley Borough Council to convert the 17th century barn into a wedding venue.[3] The planning application included repairs to the structure and conversion of nearby buildings into other uses such as shops.[4]

Historic England supported the application, saying that it will secure the long-term future of the buildings.[5]
