'Brindle' is a small village and
civil parish of the
borough of
Chorley,
Lancashire,
England. It is in the centre of a triangle between
Preston,
Blackburn, and
Chorley. The scenic countryside has little industry but a thriving community. Brindle is also one of the most affluent areas in Lancashire
[1], with average earnings over 33% higher than the national average, an achievement of considerable note for a rural community.
Brindle is home to the Cavendish Arms pub, Saint James's
Church of England church, tennis courts and a number of trails and
bridle paths. As a beautifully kept parish offering excellent links to nearby towns including business centres such as
Preston,
Bolton,
Chorley and
Manchester, Brindle has become a desirable place to live for professionals who want to reside in rural areas, as such Brindle could be described as a
commuter village although the village still retains a strong sense of local identity.
House prices in the area are high, with the average detached house price approaching £500,000 and a terraced house around half that amount.
