enjoy real lancashire gin at the whitehall distillery

Gin Crafted in the heart of lancashire

Distilled at the base of the Pennines it was only fitting to feature Jubilee Tower known in the locality and surrounding area as Darwen Tower. Built in 1898 to commemorate Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee, the same year Whitehall Hotel was built.

The pattern around the tower is that of the lace collar worn by Oliver Cromwell who led the armies of the Parliament of England. The Lord Protector stayed at Whitehall Cottage, the former hunting lodge of the de Hoghton family the night before the Battle of Preston in 1648.
