About

Colne North lies within the Borough of Pendle in Lancashire, covering the northern part of the town of Colne. The area is largely residential, arranged around a network of stone-built streets and terraces that reflect its 19th-century cotton and weaving history. Local services include primary schools, community centres and a public library, with small shops and light industrial units occupying converted mill buildings. The street pattern rises toward the moorland foothills, so views across the town open toward a familiar skyline feature, Pendle Hill.

Community life in Colne North centres on neighbourhood facilities and sports pitches used by local clubs. Bus routes link the ward to Colne railway station and nearby towns in Pendle, while footpaths and bridleways extend into surrounding fields and pastures. Planning and conservation efforts have focused on maintaining the townscape formed by former mill sites and rows of housing, alongside incremental reuse of industrial buildings for workshops, storage and housing.
