About

Up Holland is a village and civil parish in the borough of West Lancashire. It sits on a rise of land with farmland and small pockets of woodland around the settlement. The parish church of St Thomas the Martyr stands on higher ground and its tower is visible across the surrounding plain, serving as a local point of reference. The village is arranged around a compact centre with shops, a post office and a primary school. Footpaths and lanes radiate from the core, linking field edges and a network of public rights of way used for walking and cycling.

Evidence of the area's industrial past appears in former colliery sites and rows of miners’ housing; traces remain in street names and building materials. Community life is focused on a recreation ground, sports clubs and a community centre, with allotments and parish activities used throughout the year. Bus services connect the village to surrounding towns and minor roads provide access for commuters. Local planning work seeks to balance housing requirements with protection of the ridge line that frames the village skyline.
