Astley Park lies close to the centre of Chorley. Chorley Borough Council acquired the Hall and 12 hectares of Park from the owners, the Tatton family in 1922 as a memorial to the dead of the Great War. The Park now covers 43 hectares.

This attractive Park is steeped in history and combines open parkland and ancient boundary woodland. Visitors of all ages will discover an attractive setting for a wide range of leisure activities.

The park stages summer fundays and family events.

Astley Hall itself is open throughout the year and is the venue for an active exhibition and events programme.

A bid is being submitted to the Heritage Lottery Fund to revitalise the Park and buildings to impove visitors facilities and restore the heritage of the park.

Opening Times

Astley Park 1 Jan 2008 - 31 Dec 2008
