Newburgh is a small village and civil parish in West Lancashire, Lancashire, England, set on the flat, fertile Lancashire plain a few miles from the market town of Ormskirk. Its rural setting is defined by farmland, drainage channels and hedgerows, with straightforward road links that make it viable for commuters as well as local farmers.
Historically an agricultural settlement, Newburgh keeps a compact village core of cottages and farm buildings and an active community life centred on the village hall and church; local walks and nearby wetlands attract walkers and birdwatchers. Economically it remains tied to farming alongside a growing residential element, giving the village a quietly rural but well connected character within Lancashire.
