Arborie Lodge was built in 1790 to serve as the gate-house to Huntroyde Hall. It has a unique "folly" effect look, being turreted and joined to the neighbouring wing by a graceful stone archway. Massive wrought iron gates stand over the driveway and "hobbit" style round windows add to the charm of this exceptional property. Arborie Lodge is located close to the beautiful and scenic Ribble Valley countryside and is situated close to the famous Pendle Hill of Lancashire witches fame; whilst on a practical level is just minutes away from the motorway network.
