HALLS OF CHRISTMAS PAST
Townley Hall A historic home dating back to the 1300s, Townley Hall is a wonderful example of how homes developed over time. The simple tower house was the main home to the Townley family until the 1700s when the hall was extended. The Townley’s lived in the hall until the early 1900s and now Townley Hall stands as a home for Burnley’s heritage, arts and culture. Dotted around the Hall over the festive season you will find decorations to match the traditional settings, and events for the whole family to enjoy.
With Lancashire’s rich history dating back to the Roman times, it's no wonder that there are buildings throughout the county that allow you to step into the world of Christmas past. From sparkling frost covered gardens to warm banqueting halls, decorated foyers and giant Christmas trees, you can find a place to marvel at the magic of the season throughout Lancashire. Join us on a road trip of the county's oldest and most festive halls and houses.
Burnley
Gawthorpe Hall An Elizabe than gem, Gawthorpe Hall tells the story of life in the Victorian era for the Kay-Shuttleworth Family. While mostly closed throughout the festive season you can see the Hall trimmed and decorated during its Victorian Christmas Weekend on the 28th and 29th November or their Victorian Christmas Celebration on 4th December.
