Only eight miles from Skipton, the entryway to the Yorkshire Dales, the old market town of Barnoldswick is located in the Pennine hills amid gorgeous, gently sloping landscape on the Lancashire/Yorkshire boundary. A bustling town in the centre of England, commonly referred to as Barlick, is proud of its manufacturing heritage, which spans from a significant textile sector to the production of modern aircraft engines at the Rolls Royce factory. The town is traversed by Pennine cycling and bridleways, and the magnificent summit section of the Leeds & Liverpool canal meanders past the town and its bustling port. Excellent walks along the old Roman road at Brogden Lane, the canal towpath, and the undulating heather moorland of Weets and Pendle Hill, which boast some of the best vistas in the nation, are also among the wonderful walking terrain.
