The ‘Great House Barn’ is smaller in size to its sister ‘the Rivington Hall Barn’, but more than competes in its beauty. With magnificent original oak cruck beams and A-frames its aesthetics are easy to bestow. The Great House Barn, locally known as the ‘Lower Barn’, is a 16th-century barn and Grade II listed building in Rivington, Lancashire. Many visitors love to come to the Lower Barn as it is

located within the Rivington Country Park Reserve. The area’s surrounding woodland paths and moorside walks offer spectacular hilltop views of the countryside, making it a very popular destination for ramblers, cyclists and motorcyclists alike. Brief History:
Over the Centuries the Great House Barn has been used as an agricultural building, a tea room (by Lord Leverhulme) and then storage building during World War II. Having been left derelict since the end of the War, Bill and Rhoda Salmon restored the building to a tea room in 1953 and it is still run by the salmon family today.
