Scarisbrick is a largely rural parish in West Lancashire, in the county of Lancashire in north‑west England, sitting between the market town of Ormskirk and the seaside resort of Southport. The landscape is characterised by rolling farmland, small woodlands and winding country lanes rather than a dense village centre, giving it a quietly agricultural feel with good access to nearby towns by road.
The area is best known for the imposing country house Scarisbrick Hall and a scattering of other historic, listed buildings, and local life still revolves around farming, equestrian pursuits and small‑scale rural enterprises. Many residents commute to surrounding centres for work, but the parish retains a strong rural identity, with community activities, churches and occasional local events that reflect its long local history.
