Wrightington Lancashire Map

About Wrightington

Wrightington breathes a quiet, enduring presence within the West Lancashire landscape. It lies 4.1 km west-north-west of Standish (from Standish: bearing 302°T, OS grid SD 526 123), and is situated west-south-west of Mossy Lea village. The land here, a gentle swell of verdant fields, often catches the low, diffused light of the North West, imbuing the air with a pearlescent quality. Historically, Wrightington's fortunes have been tied to the soil, its fields yielding their bounty under skies that can shift from soft grey to brilliant, unexpected blue. A scattering of farms and older dwellings form the hamlet, their stone walls absorbing the subtle echoes of generations who have worked this earth. The quietude of Wrightington is not an emptiness, but a fullness of a life lived in harmony with the seasons and the steady turning of days.
