Lostock Hall history
Early history
Lostock’s Hall was built by James de Lostock in the rural area of Cuerden Green. The grounds which surrounded the hall got renamed as Lostock Hall after the death of James, by his daughter Magote. In 1662 Andrew Dandy paid a rent of 12d to the lord of Clitheroe for his lands called Lostock.
