The civil parish of Adlington sits in the Borough of Chorley in Lancashire, England, on the edge of the West Pennine Moors and within easy reach of Manchester and Preston. Its setting mixes residential streets and local green space, with the reservoirs and walking country around Rivington giving a pleasantly rural feel close to bigger towns.
Adlington grew through Lancashire’s industrial era, with textile and coal-working links, and today combines period buildings and village shops with a commuter population served by a rail station on the Manchester–Preston line. Community life is centred on local clubs, pubs and regular events, while the nearby moorland and reservoirs make it popular for outdoor recreation.
