Shaw Hill is an 18th-century country house in Whittle-le-Woods, Lancashire, England, standing in 192 acres of parkland some 3 miles (5 km) north of Chorley.
[3] The Crosse family of East Lancashire first acquired property in the Chorley area around 1400 and built a house on the Whittle-le-Woods site in the 1700s.
[4] He commissioned Charles Reed of Birkenhead to rebuild the existing house in the 1840s[5] and asked William Sawrey Gilpin to landscape the estate.
Thomas Bright Crosse was appointed High Sheriff of Lancashire for 1837 and was briefly MP for Wigan in 1841 (before his election was declared void).
The house is owned and run by the Stokes family and offers 30 bedrooms, a restaurant and an indoor swimming pool.
