Welcome to Brownside

Brownside is a small village located in the county of Lancashire, England. It is situated on the southern slopes of the West Pennine Moors, and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village is known for its picturesque views, and is a popular destination for walkers and hikers. Brownside is also home to a number of historic buildings, including the Grade II listed Brownside Hall, which dates back to the 17th century.

The village of Brownside has a rich history, and has been inhabited since the Bronze Age. In the Middle Ages, it was a centre for the wool trade, and many of the buildings in the village date back to this period. During the Industrial Revolution, Brownside became a hub for cotton spinning and weaving, and many of the mills that were built during this time still stand today. The village has also played an important role in the development of the railway industry, with the Bolton and Preston Railway passing through the area in the 19th century.

Today, Brownside is a thriving community, with a range of amenities and services available to residents and visitors alike. The village has a primary school, a post office, and a number of shops and pubs. There are also several community groups and organisations, including a local history society and a gardening club. Brownside is a peaceful and welcoming place, and is a great place to visit for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
