Rivington Lancashire Map

About Rivington

Rivington rests in the embrace of Lancashire's rolling landscape. It lies 2.2 km east-north-east of Adlington (from Adlington: bearing 66°T, OS grid SD 626 144), and is situated north-north-east of Grimeford Village village. Here, the earth slopes gently towards the horizon, and the air often carries the scent of damp soil and distant heather. Ancient dry stone walls trace the contours of fields, their grey stone softened by moss and the passage of countless seasons. The quietude of Rivington is broken only by the bleating of sheep or the distant hum of traffic on the wider roads, a sound that seems to drift in from another world. The light here can be particularly beautiful, a soft, diffused glow that lends a muted, almost watercolour quality to the surrounding countryside, especially in the low-slung autumn afternoons.
