Tockholes Lancashire Map

About Tockholes

Tockholes, a quiet Lancashire hamlet, draws its character from the rolling contours of the West Pennine Moors. It lies 3.1 km west-north-west of Darwen (from Darwen: bearing 291°T, OS grid SD 663 233), and is situated east-north-east of Abbey Village village. The air here often carries the clean scent of damp earth and peat, a constant reminder of the moorland's proximity, where the sky seems to stretch wider than elsewhere. Ancient drystone walls, like weathered veins, trace the boundaries of fields where sheep graze, their wool catching the soft, diffused light that filters through the often-clouded Lancashire sky. The village itself, a modest collection of dwellings, possesses a stillness that speaks of generations who have found their peace here, far from the clamour of larger settlements.
