Chorley South West is a largely residential ward on the southern edge of Chorley in Lancashire, England, combining older Victorian terraces with newer housing estates and pockets of green space. It sits within easy reach of the town centre and local amenities, with community halls, primary schools and small parades of shops serving a mixed population of families and commuters.
The area reflects Chorley's industrial past, with converted mill buildings and local street patterns hinting at its textile and engineering heritage, while open countryside and the West Pennine Moors are close enough for weekend walks. Good transport links and nearby recreational spaces, including riverside routes along the River Yarrow, make it a practical and well-connected suburban neighbourhood.
