Description

Gawthorpe Hall was redesigned in the 1850s by the architect Sir Charles Barry, designer of the Houses of Parliament. Barry collaborated with the architect and designer A.W.N. Pugin and the decorative firm of J.G. Crace to magnificent decorative schemes.

The modest Hall houses the North West’s largest collection of portraits on loan from the National Portrait Gallery as well as The Gawthorpe Textiles Collection, a wonderful collection of textiles founded by Miss Rachel Kay-Shuttleworth. Gawthorpe Hall is the final stop on ‘The Brontë Way’, a long distance route with strong associations with the writings of Charlotte Brontë and the family.

Price starts from £7.00 for Adults(18 years and over). If you are looking for Best place for day out with kids and families then this is the perfect destination offering fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories for everyone.
