About

St Mary's ward encompasses a portion of Clitheroe, the primary market town within the Ribble Valley. The area includes residential streets radiating from the town centre and extends to incorporate some of the surrounding rural edges. Its geography is defined by proximity to the River Ribble and the prominent limestone outcrop of Clitheroe Castle, which sits at its heart. The ward functions as a central hub for local administration and commerce for the wider borough.

The historic castle grounds and museum provide a focal point, with the keep offering views across the town's rooftops to the Pendle Hill landscape beyond. Weekly markets and independent shops operate around the central streets. Residential areas feature a mix of traditional terraced housing and more modern developments, with community facilities like the town hall and library serving local needs. The ward's character is shaped by this blend of urban function and its scenic rural setting.
