About

Barrowford, Higham & Pendleside sit on the lower slopes of Pendle in Lancashire and combine village streets, former textile sites and open farmland. The Leeds and Liverpool Canal runs through Barrowford, its towpath providing a clear east–west route and the canal corridor carrying a row of mill buildings and workshops that trace the area’s industrial history. The centre of Barrowford contains shops, a community hub and links to local schools, while terraced housing and later estates spread toward the valley sides.

Higham and the Pendleside sections extend into agricultural land and the lower moorland fringe. Footpaths and bridleways thread the fields and climb toward the fell, where Pendle Hill forms a constant presence on the skyline. Local governance is at parish level, with village halls and pubs acting as meeting points for clubs and events. Agriculture, small-scale manufacturing and commuter patterns shape daily life, and the landscape changes quickly from tight streets near the canal to open pasture and stone walls within a few fields.
