Blackburn /ˈblækbərn/ (listen) is a large industrial town located in Lancashire, England, north of the West Pennine Moors on the southern edge of the Ribble Valley, 8 miles (13 km) east of Preston and 20.9 miles (34 km) north-northwest of Manchester.[n 1][4] Blackburn is bounded to the south by Darwen, with which it forms the unitary authority of Blackburn with Darwen; Blackburn is its administrative centre.
The ancient market town of Clitheroe in the Ribble Valley is a perfect place to stay for visitors wishing to explore Lancashire’s Forest of Bowland, one of England’s 36 Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). With its extensive range of accommodation including B&B’s, hostels, self catering and camping and caravan sites, your visit to Clitheroe can suit your budget and preferences.
Clitheroe actually dates back to Saxon times so by the time the imposing 12th century Norman Castle that towers over the town had been built, Clitheroe had already been around for nearly 1,000 years! Clitheroe Castle, said to be the smallest Norman castle in England, is now home to a Museum and 16 acres of landscaped gardens, which houses attractions to appeal to every age group. They include a bandstand, children’s playground, skate-park and Lancashire’s first Labyrinth. The Rose Garden also features quirky metal and limestone sculptures.
One of four Circular Walks that take you around the town and surrounding countryside leaves from the Castle – pick up a leaflet from the Visitor’s Centre for directions. Sporting fans might want to enjoy a day at Clitheroe Golf Club, one of the countrys best inland courses. Clitheroe is well known for its plethora of specialist shops. Award-winning Byrnes Wine Shop is famous for its enormous underground cellar bursting with unusual vintages from all over the world. Cowman’s Famous Sausage Shop sells more than 75 sausage varieties while the Exchange Coffee Company stocks more than 35 coffees and 60 specialist teas.
Earby is a small, friendly town on the Lancashire and Yorkshire border. The town was mentioned in the Doomsday Book as "Eurebi" in the manor of Thornton. The old village lies away from the main road, close to the stream which powered a 12th century mill, hence the name Mill Brow. Earby is probably the own place in the country to have its own Youth Hostel. The Hostel is owned by the local council, the Borough of Pendle, and the YHA runs it. The hostel's claim to fame doesn't stop there as it was once the home of Catherine Bruce Glasier, regarded as "The Mother of the Independent Labour Party".
Hornby is a village in the Melling parish in Lancashire. It stands at the confluence of the Wenning and the Lune rivers, adjacent to the former Little Northwestern railway.
The village commands beautiful scenery along the valleys, is frequently visited by tourists and has cattle fairs on every alternate Tuesday of the summer months.
Hornby is famed for its spectacular private residence, a Grade 1 listed castle overlooking the village. The base of the castle's octagonal tower dates from the 12th or 13th century, but most of its structure dates from the 16th century. It has been much modified over the years, particularly in the 19th century. It is now an imposing private residence.
There is also an ancient castle site, Castle Stede, to the north of the village on the banks of the River Lune.
