The History of Lapstone Barn
Nestled in the tranquil Cotswold Countryside in Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire, stands the historical Lapstone Barn. This beautifully restored 18th-century barn has a rich history running for more than two centuries. Originally, Lapstone Barn was a part of Lapstone Farm, functioning as a mixed-use farm for thriving Cotswold’s agriculture until the mid-20th century. In the 1950s, its role transformed into a hub for local craftspeople who were producing premier hand-made goods. Throughout the 90s, the barn served as a well-known craft shop, attracting visitors from around the world who admired traditional Cotswold crafts. Despite its transformation over the years, the barn retained its original stone structure, its rustic charm gently preserved. In 2017, a significant restoration project commenced to convert Lapstone Barn into a high-quality wedding venue. Today, it features a blend of old-world charm with modern sophistication, reflecting its centuries-old history while providing contemporary services for wedding ceremonies and receptions. The architectural adaptation and careful restoration of this historical structure have breathed new life into it, making Lapstone Barn an iconic and cherished wedding venue in the heart of the Cotswolds.

FAQs
Picking your Lapstone Barn Wedding Photographer- why Pedge Photography?
Besides the fact that you are getting a highly professional, experienced, and creative photographer who will capture all of the special moments of your wedding day, family and friends, you are getting someone that goes in to each wedding knowing that every couple is unique and that all weddings deserve their own twist and personality, rather than be provided a conveyor belt experience. I take great pride to subtly merge into your day and to be approachable for all your guests. The Cotswolds is an area I grew up in and I am all too familiar with everything the region has to offer.
What products do you offer as a Lapstone Barn Wedding Photographer?
This can bespoke based on your needs. All packages include a digital gallery in which you, your family and friends can enter with a password and download to any device. On top of this, you can also purchase prints, framed goods and albums through the digital gallery. If you would like me to build you an album, I offer an additional album package as well.
