Brierfield West & Reedley sits on the eastern edge of the borough of Pendle in Lancashire, England, covering part of the small mill town of Brierfield and the more rural Reedley area. The ward mixes terraced streets and surviving brick mill buildings along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, with open countryside and the distinctive silhouette of Pendle Hill on the horizon.
Shaped by 19th‑century textile industry, the area retains industrial heritage even as its economy now relies on local shops, light industry and commuters to nearby towns. A culturally diverse community, active local groups and ongoing regeneration projects aim to preserve historic character while encouraging new housing and investment.
