A short history of Barrowford
The packhorse bridge near Higherford Mill dates to the end of the 16th century. Woollen cloth was the main industry until the late 18th century. In 1780 Abraham Hargreaves rebuilt the village fulling mill as a cotton mill. A turnpike road built in 1804 replaced the old main road to Gisburn. Handloom weavers' cottages served the cotton trade for about fifty years until power looms arrived in the 1820s and weaving moved into large sheds. A church was built in 1839. Lancashire's earliest residential home for deaf people was set up here in 1929. The 1839 church burnt down in 1964. Eight listed buildings stand near the centre: seven at Grade II and Lamb Working Mens Club at Grade II*.
