## Description

J. Houghton & Son is a family-run saddlery and leather goods maker based in Darwen, Lancashire. Established more than 100 years ago, the firm remains in the hands of distant members of the founding family and continues a long-standing tradition of craftsmanship and quality. Its work has earned recognition across generations: William Houghton won a silver medal in the 1902 national harness competition, and current owners John Thomas and Bryan Galloway have competed successfully in the Master Saddlers Competition.

The company makes harness, saddlery, cases and other leather goods to order, tailored to customers’ individual requirements. Examples of its harness work and leather pieces are featured on its website. Customers can contact the shop to discuss a bespoke order or arrange an appointment to visit. Opening hours are flexible, and visitors are advised to call ahead because the owners may occasionally need to close the shop early. J. Houghton & Son combines specialist leatherworking skills with a heritage rooted in the local community.
