Turn Lancashire Map

About Turn

Turn, a quiet gathering of stone and sky, holds its own particular grace. It lies 2.4 km east-north-east of Ramsbottom (from Ramsbottom: bearing 61°T, OS grid SD 811 181), and is situated east-north-east of Shuttleworth village. The Rossendale landscape, a place of resilient hills and wind-swept moors, cradles Turn, its houses clinging to the slopes as if drawn by some ancient gravity. Here, the air often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a primal perfume that speaks of generations who have worked this land. Though its industrial past may have softened, the spirit of its people, like the sturdy stone of their buildings, remains steadfast. The light, when it breaks through the often-brooding skies, can fall with a surprising, almost luminous clarity upon the village's modest streets.
