About

Whitewell & Stacksteads is situated in the Irwell Valley within the Rossendale borough. The ward encompasses the communities around the River Irwell, with Stacksteads to the north and Whitewell to the south, linked by the A681 road. The landscape is characterised by steep valley sides and former industrial sites, with housing spread across the slopes. Local amenities are concentrated along the main thoroughfares serving the resident population.

The area's history is deeply tied to textile manufacturing, evidenced by remaining mill structures now often repurposed for other uses. A notable local feature is the Irwell Sculpture Trail, which passes through the ward, integrating art into the post-industrial landscape. Open moorland rises to the south, providing accessible upland walking routes directly from the residential areas. The ward functions as a collection of distinct neighbourhoods with strong community ties.
