Ramsgreave is a small civil parish in the borough of Ribble Valley, Lancashire, England, sitting on the northern fringe of Blackburn and within easy reach of Clitheroe. The landscape is predominantly rural, with farmland, scattered stone cottages and narrow lanes giving it a quietly village-like feel rather than an urban one.
The parish benefits from Ramsgreave & Wilpshire railway station, which provides straightforward commuter links into nearby towns and cities, so the local economy mixes traditional agriculture with residents who work elsewhere. Historic farmsteads and traditional buildings hint at a long rural past, and the small, close-knit community shares the cultural rhythms of the wider Ribble Valley countryside.
