A little more information on Blackburn

A tiny rural community called Langho can be found in Lancashire's Ribble Valley. The village is divided into two halves, the old and the new. The new Langho was built after the railway was built in the middle of the 19th century, becoming a small but active commercial centre. Since the Old Langho church was deemed to be too far away, the new church of St. Leonard was constructed in 1879. However, since the construction of the A59 roundabout, even the new church is now somewhat secluded. The historic area of the village is regarded as a true gem, rich in history for tourists to discover. The mediaeval church of St. Leonard was constructed using masonry from Whalley Abbey, which Henry VIII had destroyed in 1537. The village has a few modest stores, a school, and pubs and restaurants. The larger area, however, has a wealth of attractions to explore, such as Longridge Fell, which is located at the southern tip of the Forest of Bowland AONB. Its summit is perched above wild forestry and offers stunning views to the north and west, particularly of Fair Snape Fell and the Trough of Bowland. The Dean Clough Reservoir offers additional walking paths as well as cycling and mountain riding with some breathtaking scenery, while nearby Whalley offers wonderful walking at Spring Wood and has a fantastic golf club. There are several shops and restaurants in Clitheroe, and you can also see Clitheroe Castle there. Just 15 miles away in the small village of Turton, on the outskirts of the West Pennine Moors, is Turton Tower, a typical English country house that displays remnants from the Tudor and early Stuart eras. This magnificent region of the North West has a lot to offer, whether you feel like taking a leisurely stroll, going out for a wild night, or learning a lot about history. It encompasses a charming village where you can base your vacation.
