What a superb village though.
The village itself is separated by a beautiful stream running through the centre of the main road.
The village has been awarded the status of a conservation area.
It really does Lancashire and Britain in general proud.
What a beautiful Barn conversion we have here as well:-
There's an interesting article here taken from the Lancashire Telegraph.
THOUSANDS of visitors face being turned away from Pendle Hill this Hallowe’en because of concerns over safety.
Cars will be banned from parking on the hill on Friday, October 31, from 5pm to 3am, and popular fairground rides and mobile catering units which have headed for the area in recent years will also be turned away.
Pendle Hill has become a hotspot at Hallowe’en attracting thousands of visitors from across the region.
But concerns over the size of the event, traffic problems, the health and safety of pedestrians and alcohol related issues have prompted the measures to be brought in.
Chairman of the Event Safety Advisory Group, Ribble Valley Council emergency planning officer Chris Shuttleworth, said: “Pendle Hill now attracts thousands of visitors in the mistaken belief that an official event is taking place.
“Over the past two years, the event has become progressively worse in its atmosphere and behaviour.
“The new measures have been brought into place for reasons of health and safety, welfare, law and order, and we are asking for the cooperation of the general public.”
The Event Safety Advisory Group comprises Ribble Valley Borough Council, Lancashire Constabulary, Lancashire Highways, the Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service, Lancashire Ambulance Service, Lancashire Countryside Service and the Health and Safety Executive.
Inspector Jenny Coulston, of Ribble Valley Police, added: “It has been necessary to take this action to ensure safety on Pendle Hill at Hallowe’en.”
Motorists heading for Pendle Hill via the A59 will not be allowed to stop until they reach Sabden, where they will be allowed to park and walk up the hill.
Pendle Hill will be closed to all traffic travelling from Sabden and access to the Wellsprings Inn at the Nick o’ Pendle will be by ticket only.
Traffic coming into Sabden via Whalley Road from the direction of Whalley or Accrington will have to exit the village via Padiham Road in the direction of Black or White Hill, or park their car and walk up Pendle Hill.
Traffic coming into Sabden via Black or White Hill from the direction of Padiham, Burnley, the M65, or M66, will have to exit the village via Whalley Road, or park and walk up Pendle Hill.
