Higher Copthurst Lancashire Map

About Higher Copthurst

Higher Copthurst, a small Lancashire hamlet, exhales a quietude that seems to settle with the evening light. It lies 3.6 km north-north-east of Chorley (from Chorley: bearing 20°T, OS grid SD 595 210), and is situated north-east of Johnson's Hillock village. The landscape around Higher Copthurst unfolds in gentle rises and dips, fields of deep green often softened by a fine mist that clings to the air in the early mornings. Ancient hedgerows, thick with hawthorn and dog rose, trace the boundaries of pastures where sheep graze with a patient industry. The few cottages that comprise Higher Copthurst, their stone weathered by generations of Lancashire wind and rain, seem to root themselves firmly into the earth, their chimneys sending thin plumes of smoke into the vast, often dramatic sky.
