About

Marsden is situated on the western edge of Pendle, bordering Lancashire's Rossendale borough. The area is characterised by its upland geography, with open moorland and farmland defining much of the landscape. Settlements here are often small and linear, following the contours of the hills and valleys.

The community is closely linked to the surrounding natural environment, with local pathways providing access to the moorland tops. The area's history is tied to farming and earlier domestic wool production, a legacy still visible in the traditional stone-built houses and field boundaries that pattern the slopes.
