About Weir
Weir is a village located north of Bacup in the Rossendale borough of Lancashire, England, with a population of 1,251 as recorded in the 2011 Census. Originally a hamlet, Weir developed into a suburb of Bacup following the construction of the Burnley Road turnpike in the late 18th century. Its strategic location near the boundary with the Borough of Burnley makes it a relevant area for planning applications. It sits within the Rossendale district.
There are currently no active flood warnings for the Weir area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Weir a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
