About Worston

Worston is a quaint linear village located in the Ribble Valley district of Lancashire, England, just northeast of Clitheroe and northwest of Pendle Hill. With a small population of 76 recorded in the 2001 census, Worston operates without a parish council, instead holding a parish meeting in conjunction with the nearby village of Mearley. As of the 2011 Census, population data for both villages is incorporated within the civil parish of Pendleton, making it an area of interest for those researching local planning applications.

In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Worston a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
