The area

Stacksteads is a small, historic village located in the town of Bacup, within the Rossendale Valley in Lancashire, England. Nestled among rolling hills and scenic moorland, it has a strong industrial heritage, particularly in textile manufacturing and coal mining, which shaped much of its development during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The area is characterised by traditional stone terraced housing, a close-knit community feel, and a backdrop of natural beauty that attracts walkers, cyclists, and nature lovers. The River Irwell runs through Stacksteads, adding to its rural charm while also serving as a reminder of the area's industrial past. Today, Stacksteads is a quiet residential area that retains its village character while benefiting from proximity to larger towns like Rawtenstall and Burnley. Local amenities include primary schools, parks such as Moorlands Park, and various community organisations that help maintain a strong sense of local identity. The nearby Lee Quarry and Cragg Quarry mountain bike trails draw outdoor sports enthusiasts to the region, while ongoing efforts by community groups like the Stacksteads Countryside Park Group (scpg) continue to enhance the environment and community spaces. Despite economic challenges typical of post-industrial areas, Stacksteads remains a resilient and welcoming place.
