Barnoldswick, Yorkshire
Barnoldswick (colloquially known as Barlick) is a town in Yorkshire, in the Craven area of the West Riding. The town is built in the shadow of Weets Hill. Stock Beck, a tributary of the River Ribble, runs through the town. Barnoldswick dates back to Anglo-Saxon times but remained a small village until the arrival of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and later the railway, after which it grew to become a major cotton town. It is within the council area of Pendle (Lancashire).
