About

Walton-le-Dale sits on the east bank of the River Ribble in the borough of South Ribble, with a mix of residential streets, local shops and light industry. The main road through the area links north-south traffic and provides direct bus and road connections to nearby centres. St Leonard’s parish church and the village green with its war memorial form the historic core, while Walton Summit nearby hosts a cluster of industrial and distribution units that grew up with 20th-century transport links.

The area shows layers of development: rows of Victorian terraces and later housing estates sit alongside converted commercial buildings and small parks. Community facilities include primary schools, a library and sports grounds, and a local cemetery records generations of residents. River paths along the Ribble offer access to riverside walking and a sequence of historic bridges marks long-standing crossing points that have shaped how Walton-le-Dale grew.
