Ulnes Walton is a small, rural village and civil parish in the borough of Chorley, in Lancashire, England. Sitting among rolling agricultural land a short drive from Chorley town centre and roughly six miles from Preston, it has a low‑density pattern of farms, cottages and scattered hamlets rather than a compact urban core.
Historically agricultural with roots reaching back to earlier centuries, the parish features traditional farmhouses and a quiet village atmosphere; community life generally revolves around parish activities and nearby towns for shops, services and rail links. The hedged fields, small woodlands and rural lanes make it typical of Lancashire countryside, while employment is a mix of farming, local small businesses and commuting to neighbouring centres via good road connections.
