About

Cliviger with Worsthorne is a rural ward on the eastern fringes of Burnley, characterised by its open moorland and scattered settlements. The area encompasses the steep-sided Cliviger Gorge, a significant transport corridor carrying the A646 road and a railway line towards Todmorden. This landscape is defined by farmland and the presence of former quarries, with the hamlets spread across the upper slopes.

The village of Worsthorne retains a distinct identity with its stone-built properties and village green, historically separate from the industrial development in the valleys below. The ward includes the isolated hamlet of Mereclough and stretches onto the exposed uplands of Hameldon Hill. This geography creates a clear contrast between the populated valleys and the expansive, undeveloped moorland.
