Holmes Mill -Clitheroe

Holmes Mill is a wedding venue with a twist – and one I’ve always loved photographing. It’s not just a beautiful space, it’s an experience in itself. Home to its own brewery, a quirky bowling alley, and the character-filled Engine Shed, it’s perfect for couples looking for something a little different from the traditional wedding venue. The industrial-meets-vintage style gives it bags of personality, with exposed brick, steel beams, and unique details everywhere you look. The onsite hotel right next door makes it easy for guests to stay over, and being in the heart of Clitheroe means there’s plenty to explore nearby. From intimate ceremonies to big celebrations that go long into the night, Holmes Mill brings something truly unique to a wedding day – and it photographs brilliantly.
