1. Colne

   With a population of 18,806 Colne is the second largest town and civil parish in the Borough of Pendle, after Nelson, which lies immediately to the west. It is six miles north-east of Burnley, 25 miles east of Preston, 25 miles north of Manchester and 30 miles west of Leeds. The town should not be confused with the unrelated Colne Valley around the River Colne near Huddersfield in Yorkshire nor with the Colne Valley around Earls Colne and Colchester in Essex. Colne occupies a strategic location close to the southern entrance to the Aire Gap, which offers the lowest crossing of the Pennine watershed. The M65 terminates west of the town and from here two main roads take traffic onwards towards the Yorkshire towns of Skipton and Keighley. Colne railway station represents the current terminus of the East Lancashire railway line, which until 1970 extended northwards towards Skipton. Colne is surrounded by beautiful villages and open countryside, which have helped to fuel a recent growth in tourism. The hamlet of Wycoller with its historic pack horse bridge and clam bridge, said to date back to the Iron Age, lies to the south-east in Brontë Country. The ruin of Wycoller Hall is thought to be the inspiration for Ferndean Manor in Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre. The Brontës themselves lived just over the border, in the Yorkshire village of Haworth which, like Hardcastle Crags and Hebden Bridge, can be accessed via narrow roads over the South Pennine Moors, a Site of Special Scientific Interest. To the north west, travelling through the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty towards Clitheroe lies Pendle Hill and the villages of Newchurch and Barley. Other nearby villages include Barrowford, Foulridge, Winewall, Cottontree, Trawden and Laneshaw Bridge.
