Local guide

Living in Nelson

Homes and areas

Nelson is a classic mill town of stone terraces, with the Whitefield conservation area at its heart and homes stepping down the hillsides. Over 60% of Pendle’s homes are in council tax band A, the highest share in Lancashire, which keeps rents affordable. Three-bedroom terraces were advertised between about £520 and £850 a month in October 2026.

Getting around

The bus and rail interchange in the town centre has hourly trains to Burnley, Blackburn, Preston and Colne, Monday to Saturday. Bus routes run to Burnley, Colne, Barnoldswick, Skipton and Keighley, and the M65 is reached at junctions 12 and 13.

Local amenities

Nelson is mid-way through a £25m Town Deal. The old Pendle Rise centre is being replaced with a new shopping scheme, and Victoria, Marsden and Walverden parks are being upgraded. There is a Friday market on Market Street, Nelson and Colne College, Pendle Community Hospital on Leeds Road, and the Lomeshaye estate, home to more than 80 businesses.

Landlords recommend RPC

“We cannot thank you enough for the help and support that you have given us with our issues with the local council. Without your efforts we would have lost a considerable amount of money and our properties would have remained unlettable.”
Joe GallagherLandlord
“Mujeeb and his team have given a fantastic service over the years and have dealt with everything seamlessly and with minimum fuss. They have managed properties in the selective licensing area and made sure all the council rules and regulations have been met.”
