Scaffolding to go up at Chorley Town Hall as part of works to 'preserve' the historic site
Preservation works at Chorley Town Hall start this month.
Work is set to begin at Chorley Town Hall in a bid to preserve the historic building “for years to come”.
As part of the programme of upcoming works, Chorley Council will be repairing the currently out-of-action town hall clock as well as essential maintenance, including replacing windows, repairing stonework and undertaking external cleaning.
In January 2026, Krol Corlett Construction Ltd was appointed by the local authority to deliver improvement and decarbonisation works, which aim to make the building more sustainable and contribute to the council’s objective of achieving net carbon zero by 2030.
These works will take place alongside the essential repairs, with scaffolding to be erected at the end of this month and footpath diversions to be put in place.
A spokesperson for Chorley Council said: “The projects will ensure our historic buildings continue to take pride of place in our town for future generations.”
