About

Earby & Coates ward encompasses the town of Earby and the smaller village of Coates, situated at the western edge of Pendle. The landscape is defined by rolling farmland and the beginnings of the Pennine hills, with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal forming a historic route through the area. The local economy has transitioned from its industrial textile past towards smaller manufacturing and services, with residential streets providing housing for a largely local population.

The area is home to the Museum of Yorkshire Dales Lead Mining in Earby, which details the region's lesser-known industrial heritage beyond textiles. Community life is anchored by local schools, sports clubs, and several parks and green spaces. The ward's position offers direct access to walking routes into the southern Yorkshire Dales, providing a clear connection to the surrounding upland countryside.
