About

Salthill ward encompasses a primarily rural section of the Ribble Valley, characterised by expansive agricultural land and scattered farmsteads. The area includes the small village of Chatburn and the hamlet of Downham, with the River Ribble forming part of its southern boundary. The landscape is dominated by rolling fields and pasture, with views towards the prominent limestone outcrop of Pendle Hill to the south.

The ward's economy is largely based on farming, and the local geology is significant, featuring the historic Salthill Quarry, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest. This former quarry is noted for its exposed reef knolls and important fossil records. The area maintains a quiet, residential character, with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal tracing a route through the northern part of the ward near Chatburn.
