Quernmore is a small, largely rural parish just to the east of Lancaster in Lancashire, England, lying on the lower slopes and fringes of the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The area is characterised by rolling farmland, pockets of mixed woodland and the country estate of Quernmore Park, with a network of footpaths and bridleways that give good views across the Lune valley towards Morecambe Bay and the Pennine fells.
Locally the community is agricultural and low‑density, with a village church and hall that host occasional events; the historic estate landscape and stone farmsteads reflect 18th–19th century landholding patterns. It’s a quiet place valued by walkers, riders and anyone seeking countryside close to the services and cultural amenities of nearby Lancaster.
