Welcome to Penwortham Lane

Penwortham Lane is a major road in Lancashire that connects the town of Penwortham to the city of Preston. The road is approximately 2.5 miles long and is a busy thoroughfare for commuters and local residents. The road is lined with a mix of residential and commercial properties, including shops, restaurants, and pubs. The road is also home to several schools, including Penwortham Girls' High School and Penwortham Priory Academy.

One of the notable landmarks on Penwortham Lane is the St. Mary's Church, which is located near the junction with Liverpool Road. The church dates back to the 12th century and is a Grade II listed building. The church is known for its beautiful stained glass windows and its impressive bell tower. The church is still in use today and is a popular venue for weddings and other events.

Another notable feature of Penwortham Lane is the River Ribble, which runs parallel to the road for much of its length. The river is a popular spot for fishing and boating, and there are several parks and green spaces along its banks. One of the most popular parks is Avenham Park, which is located just a short distance from Penwortham Lane. The park is home to several historic buildings, including the Avenham Pavilion and the Belvedere, and is a popular spot for picnics, walks, and other outdoor activities.
