Map of the UK

Chatburn is a small rural ward in the heart of the Ribble Valley, Lancashire, England, sitting just a short distance from Clitheroe. It occupies a sheltered spot amid rolling farmland with views across the valley towards Pendle and the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and its streets mix traditional stone cottages and Victorian terraces with later infill housing.

The area has a modest industrial past, with 19th-century quarrying and lime-burning leaving traces in the landscape, but today the local economy is dominated by agriculture, small businesses and commuters who travel to nearby towns. A compact community life centres on the village hall and church, and the locality is popular with walkers and cyclists exploring the lanes, river corridors and wider Ribble Valley countryside.
