The Area:

Blackrod is a popular village within the BL6 postcode area and therefore benefits from brilliant access to key transport links such as Blackrod train station and Horwich Parkway which is just over 2 miles away. Junction 6 of the M61 is around 2 miles away. As a result, many locals consider Manchester and the Trafford Centre as an appropriate distance to work, shop and socialise. We find that in addition to the transport links a strong factor attracting people to the area is the access to this excellent countryside. The property itself has easy access to bus routes and there is good access to local shops. The neighbouring area of Horwich has great access to a stretch of the West Pennine Moors and towards Haigh and the neighbouring village of Adlington which includes a stretch of the Leeds-Liverpool canal.

In terms of commercial facilities, the village hosts a handful of shops and services, together with doctors and a library, with further opportunities available within Adlington, Chorley and Horwich town centres. Winter Hill, together with large areas owned by the Woodland Trust is easily accessible, We have sold many homes in the village over the years and many residents remind us that there is a great sense of community in the village.
