Greenberfield Locks

Highlight • Trail

Originally a three-rise lock, Greenberfield Locks were adapted to three separate single locks in 1820. Above the second lock, you'll spot an old limekiln. Lime used to be carried between Yorkshire and Lancashire along this section of the canal for use in the fields.

St Mary's Church, Thornton

Highlight • Religious Site

Much of St Mary's Church in Thornton dates from the 15th century. It's a fine sight that's passed on the Pendle Way during the section between Barnoldswick and Earby. The building, like other churches in the wider Craven region, has no chancel arch.
