Ashton Bank Lancashire Map

About Ashton Bank

Ashton Bank breathes a quiet existence on the fringes of Lancashire's urban spread. It lies 3.3 km west of Preston (from Preston: bearing 278°T, OS grid SD 507 300), and is situated south-south-east of Cottam village. The fields around Ashton Bank, often softened by the low sun, recall a time when the land yielded its bounty with a steady, unhurried hand. A network of minor roads, like veins on a map, connects Ashton Bank to neighbouring hamlets, their verges often thick with hedgerows that have witnessed generations of seasons. The air here can carry the scent of damp earth after a spring shower, or the distant hum of traffic from the larger centres, a reminder of its place in the wider landscape. Though not marked by grand monuments, Ashton Bank holds a certain stillness, a quiet dignity in its unassuming presence.
