Event spaces
The Main Hall is an original reception room to Lowther Lodge, built by William Lowther in 1874 and designed by the famous architect Norman Shaw. From the ceramic fireplace tiles painted by Alice Lowther to the minstrel’s gallery above, the Hall still showcases many of its original features today.
Adjoining to the Hall, our bright and spacious Education Centre can be opened up for larger receptions. Equipped with AV equipment, the room is also perfect for speeches and slideshows.
