Newtown Lancashire Map

About Newtown

Newtown, a quiet corner of Lancashire, unfolds with a gentle, unassuming grace. It lies 4.1 km south-west of Leyland (from Leyland: bearing 225°T, OS grid SD 512 187), and is situated north-west of Ulnes Walton village. The land here, a subtle tapestry of cultivated fields, often catches the soft, diffused light of the North West, rendering the hedgerows in shades of deep emerald. Occasional clusters of mature oak trees, their branches reaching skyward like ancient sentinels, punctuate the landscape, their leaves whispering secrets on the breeze. The air in Newtown carries the faint, earthy scent of damp soil and distant agricultural activity, a quiet testament to its enduring connection with the land. Though small, Newtown possesses a certain steadfastness, a sense of belonging to the wider Chorley district that has shaped its character over time.
