About

Summerseat sits along the River Irwell, forming part of the Irwell Sculpture Trail. The area is characterised by its steep, wooded valley slopes and historic stone cottages, many of which are clustered around the old mill and the former railway line. Its layout follows the contours of the river and the now-defunct East Lancashire Railway.

The preserved Summerseat railway station, a simple stone-built halt, serves as a reminder of the area's industrial past. Footpaths lead from the village into the surrounding cloughs and woodlands, connecting to a network of local trails.
