Whalley Nethertown is a largely residential ward on the edge of the market town of Whalley in Ribble Valley, Lancashire, England. It sits amid rolling Pennine foothills and agricultural land, with the attractive stone-built streets and nearby river valleys that draw walkers and visitors exploring the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The area mixes long-established local communities with commuters who travel to nearby towns such as Clitheroe and Blackburn; its local economy is a blend of small shops, hospitality and rural enterprises. Historic touches, notably the remains of Whalley Abbey in the neighbouring parish, and a strong community life centred on village halls and pubs give the ward a distinctly local, village atmosphere despite good road links.
