About

Audley is a residential ward in Blackburn with Darwen, Lancashire. The area is made up of terraces, semi-detached streets and a number of council-built estates arranged around local shops, a primary school and a community centre. Everyday life here revolves around short journeys on foot or by local bus to the town, with convenience stores, a bakery and takeaways clustered along the main shopping streets. A public playing field near the centre hosts weekend football and seasonal community events that draw families from across the ward.

Local groups use the community centre for meetings, after-school clubs and a weekly market stall that sells bread and produce. Housing plots and back lanes reflect phases of development from the late 19th century through the post-war years, so street patterns change block by block. Council services such as bin collection and street cleaning operate on the same schedules as other Blackburn with Darwen neighbourhoods, and electoral maps show Audley as a distinct administrative area within the borough.
