History

Howard/Howarth of Great Howarth Coat of Arms

Great Howarth House was the residence of the Howarths of Howarth from the 13th century until the death of Radcliffe Howarth who died unmarried in 1768, when it was sold to John Entwistle and the house remains the residence of the Entwistle family.[3] A pedigree scroll of the Howarth family compiled by Sir William Dugdale, states in a margin note that under the courtyard windows of the original house the words 'Oremus pro bono Roberti Howorth statu fundatoris' were carved. The Robert Howarth referred to died in 1611.

Architecture

The Elizabethan Manor house was demolished in the early 19th century. The current house dates largely from the early 19th century. It preserves 9 original sash windows, and a tunnel vaulted cellar with stone mullioned window which probably dates from the earlier building of the 17th century.[1][2]
