GISBURN VILLAGE

Welcome to our Village nestling within the beautiful Ribble Valley at the very heart of England.

Link to Village Panorama

The Village has picturesque stone cottages, a partly cobbled main street and a large magnificent 17th century Inn dated 1635 which has now been converted into houses. The Medieval church with its large graveyard and sturdy tower dominates the centre of the village. Set back from the village, is Gisburne Park mansion, once the family seat of the Lord's Ribblesdale, now a private hospital. A short walk away is the River Ribble and its wooded banks. Gisburn is surrounded by a patchwork of fields hedgerows and small woods well served by footpaths and quiet country lanes.

The village is a vibrant agricultural community with many businesses and a thriving school plus well used village hall. At the western approach to the village is Gisburn Auction Mart a lively and regionally important agricultural market.

With many holiday accommodation providers and being in the Ribble Valley plus close to the Forest of Bowland A.O.N.B. the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District Gisburn is an ideal holiday destination.

The information on this web site was provided by the villagers of Gisburn directly or taken from Gisburn Parish Magazine and "GISBURN 2001" a village appraisal conducted by Gisburn residents in 1996.
