The Livesey with Pleasington electoral ward sits on the western edge of the borough of Blackburn with Darwen in England. It combines suburban neighbourhoods around Livesey with the more rural village of Pleasington, rolling farmland and greenbelt countryside that provide easy walking and cycling routes and a quieter counterpoint to nearby town centres.
Locally notable features include the historic 19th‑century church often called Pleasington Priory and the long‑established Pleasington Golf Club; community life mixes commuters working along the M65 corridor with farmers and small local businesses. The ward’s semi‑rural character and proximity to the Forest of Bowland make it popular with walkers and families seeking open space while still being close to Blackburn with Darwen’s shops and services.
