The Tithe Barn - Bolton Abbey outside view

The Tithe Barn Bolton Abbey

Bolton Abbey wedding in North Yorkshire

The Tithe Barn in Bolton Abbey is a stunning grade ii listed; A 16th Century historic wedding venue found in the Yorkshire Dales in Skipton. The perfect choice for a north Yorkshire wedding. 

I’ve had the pleasure of being a photographer at the Tithe Barn and it forever remains a firm favourite when it comes to Yorkshire wedding venues.


Location:
 Part of the Bolton Abbey estate, set within the breath-taking surroundings of the Yorkshire Dales. Nestled above Bolton Abbey next to the River Wharfe you can enjoy having your wedding photos overlooking the Bolton abbey ruins.

History: This venue is a lovingly restored 16th century barn, once used for storing tithes (hence the name). The restoration kept the barn’s original character with its oak beams, vaulted ceilings, and stone walls. This history gives the venue a truly authentic barn feels making it the perfect choice if you’re looking for a barn wedding.
