The Area:
Horwich in general and Crown Lane in particular offer a good balance of access to the nearby countryside and the nearby transport links. Blackrod train station, for instance, is towards the 'bottom end' of Crown Lane and just around one mile away, whilst Junction 6 of the M61 also serves the town very well and allows access towards Manchester.
The previously mentioned countryside attracts many people to the area and includes a combination of hills and country parks whilst the nearby village of Adlington includes a stretch of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal. Many people buying in the area therefore enjoy spending time outdoors. Horwich town centre itself includes a vast array of independent shops and services with a variety of larger supermarkets and retail outlets at the Middlebrook Retail development
