Astley Hall

One of Lancashire's most historic halls set in the beautiful park of the same name. The history of the Hall itself is full of intrigue, with stories of plotting and religious turmoil. It dates back to Elizabethan times with changes and additions over the centuries, all helping make a visit to the Hall a fascinating and enjoyable experience. This grade 1 listed building is the jewel in Chorley's crown, with stunning plaster work and architectural features. As the town's museum and art gallery it is also home to items of local historical interest. William Shakespeare and Oliver Cromwell are some of the famous guests to stay at the hall.

Worth a visit to get a insite to how the rich lived . We visited the weekend before Christmas when there was a land train running from the hall to Chorley. The children and adults seemed to be having fun on their journey. We also found a children's animal area which had rabbits and snakes on show. One of the helpers got out a snake for the children to touch. They were very excited to be able to have hands on experience of coming close to a large snake. Excellent experience for young and old.

Preston England LDS Mormon Temple

Reviewed By 356manfredb - Telford, United Kingdom

We visited this Temple during our holiday in Lancashire and were fortunate that visitors were able to see this beautiful building. Although we were unable to see the inside of the temple (reserved for members of the mormon faith) we very much enjoyed a stroll around the building, admiring the water features and incredible landscaping of trees, bushes and flowers. Well worth a Visit!
