Blackburn

Blackburn town is a significant industry town in proximity to Lancaster, West Pennine Moors, Ribble Valley, and Manchester. As a former mill town, Blackburn had most of its historical industry in the production of wool and had a large presence of Flemish weavers who helped develop the woolen cottage industry. In modern times, the community of Blackburn has become a significant investment and redevelopment area.

This is an opportune area with a sizable target population ready for the right person to bring Pitman Training to the community.
