Great Barn is an historic building in the English village of Hoghton, Lancashire. Built in 1692, and constructed using the local sandstone grit, it is now a Grade I listed building. It stands just west of Hoghton Tower.


The building is eleven bays long. One end was lofted when it was used as a milking parlour and the walls at the other end were reinforced with railway sleepers for its last agricultural use as a silage clamp.
