About

Buckshaw & Worden ward is situated in the eastern part of the South Ribble district. The area is largely defined by the modern residential development of Buckshaw Village, built on a former munitions site. This planned community features a mix of housing, retail units, and business parks, creating a distinct urban character within the borough. The layout is organised with pedestrian pathways and green spaces integrated between neighbourhoods.

To the south lies the historic Worden Park, a large public park with formal gardens, woodland, and the restored Worden Hall. The park provides extensive recreational space with its maze, craft centre, and sports facilities. This contrast between the new village and the established parkland shapes the ward's environment, with the Leyland Railway Station serving as a key transport link for the community.
