Where to stay in Habergham
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Burnley holds the rooms. Habergham is housing and estate land, so a bed here means a room in Burnley with Gawthorpe Hall reached by road rather than on foot from the door. The Gawthorpe Textiles Collection is the single fixture that would justify picking this side of the town over another.

About Habergham
What are the main landmarks in Habergham?
Habergham's roll of names is brief. Gawthorpe Hall accounts for most of what a visitor would come to see, with the Gawthorpe Textiles Collection listed beside it and the Church of All Saints, Habergham Eaves standing for the parish of the old township. Ightenhill Manor is marked on the record as a site only, which leaves Habergham with three standing entries and one absence.
What is the history of Habergham?
Two names carry the record. Gawthorpe Hall is the one building here that draws visitors in its own right, and the Gawthorpe Textiles Collection carries the same name into a second entry on the district's list. Ightenhill Manor survives only as a site.
The Church of All Saints, Habergham Eaves keeps the old township name that the growth of Burnley otherwise swallowed.
Where is Habergham?
The parish name Habergham Eaves still marks this part of Burnley, where Gawthorpe Hall and the recorded site of Ightenhill Manor both fall inside the district.
