Officially the village closest to the centre of the British Isles as certified by Ordnance Survey.
It's a pretty little village with a cafe and a pub. It's on the Ribble Valley Jubilee Trail and a good start point for several walks.

🌿 The village is a gateway to stunning routes like the Trough of Bowland, Whin Fell, and along the River Dunsop. It’s perfect for peaceful countryside walks
📍 A phone box in the village marks the “exact center” of the United Kingdom, as determined by the Ordnance Survey.
☕ Puddleducks Café is great to grab a coffee and/or cakes at the start or end of your walk
🦌 The area is rich in wildlife, including deer, birds of prey, and rare wading birds, making it great for nature lovers.
🚴‍♂️ Also great pit-stop for cyclists heading through the Forest of Bowland’s quiet lanes and rolling hills

This is marked as an intermediate walk which, in the main is accurate. The walk starts with a steep incline, well covered in the walk description. What is less documented is the subsequent decent which can be challenging for the novice/ intermediate walker.
The path down is narrow and the potential fall severe. Please be aware.
Other than that, the walk offers wonderful views after the initial climb and relatively sedate walk after decent.
