Wycoller Hall was a 16th-century manor house. It was used and expanded for a couple of hundred years until the early 1800s when the owner died, and his son couldn't afford the death taxes. Wycoller Hall passed into ownership of the creditors and declined, by the early 1900s it was a ruin. In 1973, Lancashire Council bought the estate and created the Wycoller Country Park.
