Set in stunning scenery, the friendly market town of Barnoldswick - known affectionately to locals as Barlick - lies at the very heart of England. The town is quaint, quirky, colourful; above all Barnoldswick is friendly, warm and welcoming, full of character - and characters!
Pennine cycle and bridleway routes pass through Barnoldswick and the superb summit stretch of the Leeds & Liverpool canal meanders through the town. Barnoldswick has wonderful walking countryside. The rolling heather moorland of Weets Hill boasts Britain's best view and becks dance down dales to lowland limestone landscapes.
Barnoldswick is steeped in living history. Its ancient heritage dates back to pre-Roman times. Nowadays, stone built streets surround a traditional town centre with a restful square at the heart of the community. The town even has a unique time of its own, with a clock based on the 12 different letters in Barnoldswick!
