Map of the UK

Vivary Bridge is a compact urban ward in the borough of Pendle, in Lancashire, England, covering part of the town-centre fringe of Nelson. The area is largely residential with rows of Victorian terraced housing, local high-street shops and pockets of light industry; its streets and buildings reflect the town’s 19th-century expansion around the cotton and textile mills.

Locally the ward has a culturally diverse population and an active community life centred on schools, faith groups and neighbourhood organisations. Economic life is mixed - everyday retail and services dominate now, while regeneration projects and reuse of mill buildings try to build on the historic industrial heritage and tackle longstanding social and economic challenges.
