Nether Wyresdale is a small, mainly rural parish in the district of Wyre, Lancashire, in north‑west England, tucked into the lower Wyre valley and bordering the rolling moorland of the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with market towns like Garstang and larger centres such as Preston and Lancaster within easy reach.
The character is agricultural – patchwork fields, stone cottages and scattered hamlets – but the local economy is bolstered by small enterprises, tourism and commuting; community life revolves around the village church, hall and pub, and the area retains a strong sense of history in its lanes, old farmsteads and several listed buildings.
