Higher Broadhalgh’s modest houses cluster against a sky that often holds a bruised, painterly quality. It lies 4.3 km south-west of Blackburn (from Blackburn: bearing 230°T, OS grid SD 650 255), and is situated south-east of Pleasington village. The quiet lanes here often catch the low afternoon sun, turning the damp tarmac to a slick, dark mirror that reflects the stoic brickwork of older dwellings. Fields, divided by the patient, weathered lines of dry stone walls, roll away towards the distant, soft contours of the Lancashire countryside, their surfaces a patchwork of muted greens and browns. There is a certain resilience in the very air of Higher Broadhalgh, a sense of lives lived without grand pronouncements, where the loudest sound is often the wind rustling through the hedgerows.
