Waterside & Horsfield is a ward in the borough of Pendle, in Lancashire, sitting on the edge of the small urban centres and the open Pennine fringes. The area combines dense, traditional terraced housing and post‑industrial streets with pockets of green space and farmland, and it lies within easy reach of the market town of Colne and walking country around Pendle Hill.
The ward has the kind of local character you find across this part of Lancashire: a history shaped by the textile era with surviving mill buildings and workers’ terraces, active community groups, local shops and pubs, and ongoing regeneration efforts to support a mixed, working‑class population. Its position close to upland scenery gives residents quick access to countryside recreation while still being connected to Pendle’s town centres and services.
