Colne, Lancashire

There's lots to see and do in Lancashire. A hot air balloon flight may be perfect for a birthday gift or special celebration.

The ancient market town of Colne was once at the heart of the cotton industry and is still a busy market town in the north-east of Lancashire. Both The Leeds & Liverpool Canal and Colne Water pass through the town and the two Upper and Lower Foulridge Reservoirs are north of Colne and south of the village of Foulridge.

To the north west lies Colne Golf Course and club house reached along the Skipton Old Road and A6068 (Keighley Rd). Colne Railway Station is the terminus of the line to Preston (and branch line from Nelson, to Manchester). The M65 Motorway eases travel to Colne from other areas of Lancashire.

To the west of Colne is the extensive area of Alkincoats Park, a favourite place for winter sledging.
